McCain Wants Ballmer For His Cabinet
While many people jumped all over presidential hopeful John McCain's wrong-headed view on network neutrality, few noticed his infuriating love for Microsoft. "[T]he 70 year old presidential hopeful also said that he would ask Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer to serve on his cabinet to deal with technology issues if elected. He did not however say what position Ballmer might be hired in, but did joke that he might consider him for a diplomatic position, such as ambassador to China."

Why would anyone care what you think?
With all the Indian firms using H-1B as an outsourcing tool, if McCain gets elected we can see further job losses in high tech.
A whole lot of people knew that the 9-11 attacks were coming and going to be a false flag coup strike. The media and the politicians were warned starting in *july* of 2001, that the shadow government was preparing a serious strike and going to be using their asset, bin laden, as a throw away boogey man patsy, and working in collusion with british and israeli intelligence, at the direction of a large group of multinationals who stood the most to gain from the strike.
It happened, this is all documented fact. Whenever any of their own lower level anti terrorist agents got close, to a man or woman they were told to SIT DOWN AND SHUTUP ABOUT IT. This is documented DATA. Yet, the mainstream media was mostly silent,and they let it go down, and let the coup plotters get away with their treasonus deeds. The media is complicit in this latest reichstagg fire and resultant coverup and expansion of fascist empire. The PNAC documents outlined in detail (which if you are reporter you would have read long ago) how they would act once their "new pearl harbor event", which turned out to be 9-11 then the follow up US army anthrax attack to scare congress and any wavering news people, went down, and one of the main goals was to invade iraq, no matter the reason, to establish a permanent beachhead on the ground in the center of all the oil.
And it happened, and all well before year 2003, all written out in black and white, and no politician can claim otherwise without lying, outright lying, they were all familiar with these details. Some are fellow travelers and seek fascism, others are just scared so they go along with it so as not to get "wellstoned", which was a *hit*.
Yet the controlled media are still mostly silent on it, again complicit in mass murder, a staggering amount of theft, and the chipping away of real liberties to be replaced with police state "security" for the globalist class and their toady puppets the prominent and obviously "chose ones" politicians. The media pushes their new world order globalist darlings, the "mainstream" candidates like hillary or mccain or guiliani, self labels them as the 'front runners', gives therm by far the lion's share of any press coverage, daily, and picks the candidates you will be selecting from from the one american majority party, the globalist party, with a democratic and republican criminal gang facade to give the illusion of choice and that the vote actually matters to the serfs.
Bread and circuses for the rabble, and manufactured external and internal "threats" to keep the slightly more politically aware occupied, the exact formula EVERY serious big dictatorship has ever used.
No wonder Dick Cheney kept Ballmer out of the current Administration. A shotgun weilding Vice President versus a chair throwing Ambassador would make for an interesting Sunday morning talk show routine.
You say that like it is out of the ordinary for a VP to have a shotgun. Why would a VP of the most powerful country in the world have a shotgun? That makes it sound even stranger right? Just remember, 200 years ago the VPs, and the Ps, of the US probably all had multiple shotguns and pistols. They probably went hunting too (who wouldn't with all that firepower?) and there were probably hunting accidents (statistically, more people with guns = more accidents). But alas, only during the current administration would incidents such as what happened to Cheney be the butt of jokes made by the liberals. 200 years ago the same shooting accident would just be like any other day.
