misterpeace:
They don’t see where he’s coming from. He takes old pizza gimmicks, PROVEN to succeed, and refashions them as political strategies. The 999 Plan was originally if you place an order for take-out or delivery before 9 PM, all 9-inch pizzas are $9.99 (it was originally called the 99999 Plan). If it worked for Godfather’s, it’ll work for America! He’s got a ton of...

Obama for America: Hi, Tumblr. →

It’s nice to meet you.
There are lots of reasons we’re excited to be launching the Obama 2012 campaign’s new Tumblr today. But mostly it’s because we’re looking at this as an opportunity to create something that’s not just ours, but yours, too.

And we all do better with strong safety nets, reasonable constraints on Wall Street and big business, and a...

Steve Jobs is dead.
It sucks that a person died but dudes, people die everyday.
The guy made stuff.
Other people change lives without creating products that die everyday.
Not to be insensitive, but it was bound to happen. I am sorry the hipster jesus has succumbed to his cancer, it is really sad, but seriously, it was bound to happen.
I understand the point that you are...
