Motorola Sticks To Guns On Locking Down Android
jeffmeden writes "'These aren't the droids you're looking for' proclaims Motorola, maker of the popular Android smartphones such as the Droid 2 and Droid X. At least, not if you have any intention of loading a customized operating system. According to Motorola's own YouTube channel, 'If you want to do custom roms, then buy elsewhere, we'll continue with our strategy that is working thanks.'

Yeah, a flag-burning, Bush Derangement Syndrome-addled 9/11 Troofer gets his cues from Sarah Palin. More likely Keith Olbermann and Daily Kos, no?
So sorry to blow your meme up with facts.
government-hating and bush-hating are different things...
a whacko is usually paranoid about the government, and the sight of it's figurehead would just be a trigger.
fucking false dichotomies shit me to tears. you really think there's any substantial difference between the two parties in a two party system? the civil service is the same. the politicians are the same. we just see a different face standing at a podium with the same books and the same flag behind them.
