[luvangelHussein330]

The President is a "Nerdock" or maybe a "Jockerd"

[Modok]

Renaissance Man.

When someone politely calls your speech "humorous," it's a red flag it was anything but. And his was anything but. Not to mention, a post-Obama buzz kill.

John was good, and the President was too, but, IMO, the JIB JAB was the best part This is Barack Obama!!. It''s set to music (Ghost Riders I think).
Saw it live on Keith's show -- saw it a second time and it was even better.

Thanks for that! I loved it!

[MarieFara]

I thought he was hilarious!

[motu]

that was cool.

Macs are better than PCs.

[discourse jockey]

Linux runs on both.

[Jazzman323]

So do Macs.

I installed PCLinuxOS on 9 abandoned P3's and used them in 2 Elkhart county Campaign For Change offices last year.
They were networked on a 2 wired Ethernet switches and has DSL wireless access through Linksys routers.
Ran Votebuilder, Gmail and watched streamed debates on them.

Final verdict.

We took 17,000 votes away from the party of No, in reference to the 2004 Presidential election.

And Yes, there were Macs in use also!

[Gladys1963]

I love my Mac!

[discourse jockey]

And it loves you.

[StevenevetS]

I like Whoppers. (Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce. Special orders don't ups...

What?

You're not talking about burgers?

(I wondered what a PC was. I was guessing it was something new at Arby's)

[Earl]

Not if you're a nerd.

[yellowdoggie]

I love them both! Can't we all just get along? PC at work, Macs at home. Mixed marriages can work.

[Gladys1963]

We have both at my parents' house--but I can't bring my dad over to the Mac side. I'll use both, but he's put his foot down. He hates Macs.

Our family's in shambles--where's Dr. Phil when I need him!

[rkossik]

Swish!
(Oh, sorry for using a sports metaphor.)

[yellowdoggie]

It's okay. Obama also has jock cred.

[Bagger]

Nerds rule!

[LemonMeringue]

Very cute and self-deprecating (sarcastic) I like him.
