Duh.

He outed himself as being racist, homophobic, a right wing extremist, greedy, etc.

At least, that's how the left wing will portray someone who "doesn't want to pay their fair share".

He's an entertainment commodity. He is his own brand, so it's important to not do things that will piss people off. Suggesting that you don't agree with Lord Obama's policies or those of the morally superior state of California is bad PR.

A better answer would have been

In the RTP market, which is pretty hot/competitive, only junior devs would be below $100k.

Is cendorship next on the agenda?

Seriously Ralph? "Electronic child molesters?"

Back to the censorship, and before you start snickering:
On the January 16th, it was reported that the administration were looking to set aside $10 million for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to “study the root causes of gun violence, including any relationship to video games and media images.”


Great! The government will be determining if it needs to protect us from violent video games and movies.

Remember, censorship happens all the time in socialist Europe, which is where Obama steals all his policies.

Our saving grace? Does anyone expect Hollywood will sit back and allow it to happen? They might become to censorship what the NRA is to gun control.

“We are in the peak of [violence in entertainment]. Television program violence? Unbelievable. Video game violence? Unprecedented.”

The first medium is about sixty years old, the second, maybe forty. Yeah, totally unprecedented levels of violence, just by virtue of the fact they've not been around that long.

Weird. It's like his winning the Nobel Peace Prize a few years back for "efforts in bringing peace to the Middle East" hasn't done shit.
All of that is what Obama wants to leave as his legacy. One path to achieving this passes through the Middle East. Someone has to pour cold water over this smoldering powder keg in an effort to create a more pragmatic, less volatile region.

Obama already took care of that shit, he got a medal for it, you forgetful racist.

Insurance rates going up in some places by double digits.
Particularly vulnerable to the high rates are small businesses and people who do not have employer-provided insurance and must buy it on their own.


Sadists everywhere are furiously masturbating while reading that sentence.

It’s already become painfully obvious that the law’s creators failed to think through its full implications.

Wow. I think that might be the single most naive thing I have ever read.
