Which conservative did it come from?

I'm not conservative, I don't like George Bush, I'm not religious and don't like the Christian Coalition, I support gay marriage, I'm against drug laws, and I voted for John Kerry in the last election.

You already failed at your chance to be clever. Now you're just throwing hail mary's hoping something's going to stick.

You failed again.

Apple.

Craigslist.

You can't tell the political leanings of those organizations? with Craigslist it's easy to tell that was started by a hippie liberal. Go to www.craigslist.com and see for youself.

Ah, I only had a vague idea of what Craigslist is. I thought he was referring to the act in general instead of the specifics.

As for Apple, while I'm sure they purport to be quite hippie and liberal, any large multinational corporation should probably slant towards the right wing.

I mean the 1 to 1 connection between iPod and iTunes thing....yuck. Thats not very liberal imo 😛

You didn't read my reply, did you?

I'm not a conservative. I don't vote Republican. I'm not Christian. I'm against drug laws. I support gay marriage.

I'd be the worst conservative ever.

since when do you have to be against drug laws, oppose gay marriage, or be christian in order to be a republican/conservative? you're typecasting.
 
The issue here is not who is more conservative or liberal than someone else but rather that craigslist.com is a liberal bastion. FFS, there bookmark image is a peace symbol!

lol! Yeah, I would almost feel kinda bad selling it to them for that much, if they bought it.

Anyways, I need to put an OS on it first. Sucks, I'm trying to find a used copy of OS X on ebay, but they are expensive.
 
So craigslist is a liberal playground, huh? You guys are complete morons if you believe that.

With that said, yeah I've noticed macs get good resale value. Yet another reason to own one.
 
mac have always had great resale value. I used to have a b+w g3 and a mac mini g4. both of them I was able to sell for more than I paid for them. But they are also well made machine that hold up over long periiods of time. I still know people using old 300mhz b+w g3's and all they've done over time is toss more ram into it.

No, your just the worst type. A closet conservative. One in limbo who throws his typical conservative crap around than hides behind a false image that he has made for himself. You might not be a neo-conservative, but you are a conservative, a rather crappy one at that who deduct supposedly political yearnings of entire entities based off one or two things. I mean, I saw a post for pro-fascism on craiglist forums, I am now convinced that all of craiglist is a pro-fascist Jewish hating group right? You need to wake up and stop pretending to be something that most of the intelligent people on this board can see right through. Your argument might work for 10-13 year old brothers and sisters and idiotic parents who have no idea what a neo-conservative is, but don't try to spew your lame ass spin here with people who actually know what there talking about.

So go back to your hole where you came from, and keep holding yourself rocking back and forth and crying that the liberals are coming, and there coming with macs off craiglist.

my dad has one, and it crashes in OSX plenty 😀 him being a mac fan, my two brothers and i like to give him crap about it, while our "peecees" work perfectly 😛

i find it silly people are willing to pay far more than those things are actually worth... but at any rate, they're willing, you own it = profit!😀

My just the wrong type?

You can't hide your extremist liberal views, especially when you quote Noam Chomsky in your signature.

I have some helpful tips for you:

1. Turn off the Rage Against the Machine that's blasting in your room.
2. Tear down the Che poster on your bedroom wall
3. Put down the joint because it's making you paranoid (that's what happens when you buy the cheap stuff)
