Audience Members At Fox News Debate Boo Gay Soldier

Rick Santorum answered the question, and said that the repeal of the military’s ban on openly gay servicemembers was granting them special rights. From the debate transcript:

I would say any type of sexual activity has no place in the military. The fact they are making a point to include it as a provision within the military that we are going to recognize a group of people and give them a special privilege to and removing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell I think tries to inject social policy into the military. And the military’s job is to do one thing to defend our the military, wh I all-volunteer the ability to do so in a way that is [Inaudible]

Santorum: Google it.

Qwikster From Netflix: The Worst Product Launch Since New Coke?

As any marketer will tell you, there are some truly awful times to launch a new product — like August, when few potential customers are paying attention, or January, when they’re all shopped out from the holidays.

And then there’s launching your new product in the tenth paragraph of an apology for some previous poor communication, as Netflix CEO Reed Hastings did late Sunday with Qwikster, the new name for Netflix’s DVD-by-mail service.

What The F. were they thinking? Seriously, raise my price by 60 %, lose a huge content producer, now this???

Goodby Netflix, hello Amazon and Crackle...

Malloy Calls Ron Paul an Idiot

Connecticut Gov. Dannel P. Malloy (D) shocked CNN’s Christine Romans Wednesday with his response to Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul’s suggestion that FEMA wasn’t necessary for responding to natural disasters.

“I think he’s an idiot,” Malloy stated.

“That’s blunt,” Romans replied, laughing. “That’s quite blunt.”

Malloy continued: “We’re spending $900 million a week in wars, and he is arguing about whether we should spend some amount of money? FEMA now has currently $900 million budget available to it. This is a ridiculous conversation. Really don’t understand what he’s talking about, and I’m not sure he does.

YAY!

Someone had to say it FINALLY.
