Bush Demands Apple Recount

*no comment* writes "In what may be one of the funniest things since MSN's site saying iMac is the best computer, Apple's news site picked up a story from crazyapplerumors about how George Bush is demanding a recount an Al Gore's election to the Apple board." Rumor sites bad, parody sites good. Remember that the next time you ask for a press pass to Macworld.

Shooting yourself in the foot

Al Gore doesn't enjoy a very positive image in fly-over country. Like it or not, he has "loser" tattooed to his chest. Even democrats like myself who voted for the bum think he has shot his wad. Really, Gore is joke fodder for late-night TV.

It would have been more prudent for Apple to select someone with a "winner" image, maybe someone from the world of sports like Michael Jordan.

I hate CAR but love rumor sites.

I find that site so god dam annoying. Its probably because I had incidents with a newbie who just switched from PC posting a new topic for every story but it made me go nuts. I mean people get it mixed up with the real sites. (God knows how) I also dont understad the humor on it but I like Jackass wich is hilarious yet so simple a child could have thought it up. Also anyone who bashes the Mac rumor sites probably doesent use a Mac and doesent understand the whole Mac community which can be described as unique in my opinion. I doubt speculating on the next Dell would be very fun because they look shockingly the same and the changes are always 'big' and 'exciting' like no disk drive, shock shock horror horror. I supose there is just more to speculate about and take an intrest because Apples stuff is normaly quite inoativite. Also when your watching the Keynot (If they still exist) you can laugh at thr rumor sites that got it wrong you dislike and claim that it was an easy mistake to make if you liked them And have you seen how much Apple charges us? Dont want to buy a Mac then see a new one next week. Not usualy long between anouncment and shipping unless its high end. but apple really hates them because then we do say lets not spend and they get odd spikes in sales and then you get the im eaithinf got the model with these new features and they take ages to buy them. The buyers guide at macrumors.com shows it perfectly. Some things it says DONT BUY which is not what apple wants. Ok this is a round up but if you read rumors then you would pretty much know this.
