you can see where that has gotten us: ZERO.

here's the other thing that is utterly BOGUS: This notion of "uncertainty"... businesses "can't invest or expand" because they are "uncertain" about this or that. what a load of crap.

did Mark Zuckerberg wait around, wringing his hands.. wondering "gee, should I start Facebook now or wait for six months?"

No, he did not. he moved so quickly that he was sued (multiple times) by the Winkevii twins.. for "stealing their idea".

I'm sure Fox News will find this outrageous. Outrageous!

I, however, am going to savor that visual image for a few moments. Mmmm-mmm, good.
