To anyone that thinks Chrysler's Halftime in America ad was a political statement or payback, please take your head out of your backside and smack it against a brick wall.

This was a brand building ad and nothing more. It was about telling Americans that Chrysler is on the upswing and that they should take a look at the vehicles they are building.

Only An Idiot Would Think Chrysler's Clint Eastwood Ad Was Pro-Obama
As one of the first to call the Chrysler Clint Eastwood commercial from last night's Super Bowl a "political ad" — for a moment I felt like the brouhaha over it was partly my fault.

This is a prime example of why it's so important for us to stop legislation like SOPA and PIPA. Even with the existing copyright laws like the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, "rights-holders" are abusing the process and it would get exponentially worse if we increased the "protections" they get under law.

You can see Chrysler's "Halftime in America" ad on the automaker's site at http://media.chrysler.com/homepage.do;jsessionid=D5D361FB66F4FA32CE6E3C886C71706B?mid=1 and even download a copy.

There is nothing whatsoever in that two minute clip that should violate any NFL copyrights, no mention of teams or players, no clips of games. This is just absurd. Stop the madness

The combination of some raw materials and precision numerically controlled lasers can create virtually anything in just a matter of minutes or hours as I described in a series of stories I wrote when I was still at GM.

The process for making this jawbone sounds basically like selective laser sintering SLS.

I can't wait until we can make our own new bones at home with a MakerBot http://www.makerbot.com/

It turns out 86% percent of the donations to Mitt Romney's SuperPac were in amounts of over $100,000. The Republicans and especially Romney and Gingrich are indeed the party of the 1%.

Only 9% of Romney's donations were from small dollar donations of less than $200. Meanwhile 47% of Obama's donations were from donors of less than $200.
