Well at least they've put a Live Search bar at the top of their page. That means they 'kind of' get the web. If I was running the company, the first thing I'd do is turn Microsoft.com into something resembling Google.com - a nearly blank page with a Live search box (and a link to other products). I mean, come on, show some commitment to owning the search market (and that's half the battle since people can't actually see the underlying code)...

The right is inherently anti-union (hence not supporting automakers in this case) and pro-corporate. And all of Cato's positions about "personal responsibility" vs. government regulation (of tobacco, or oil, or whomever else pays them) is obviously a tactic to influence public opinion against regulation under the guise of being pro-individual. It's total bullshit. They're about as libertarian as my left nut.

"Just because Phillip Morris pays a few dollars to keep the institute running does not mean Cato's arguments are unfounded."

lol

"As an individual, it's up to you to research both sides and decide on which makes the more compelling case."

Yup. If you don't give equal time to paid shills you're not being Fair and Balanced.
