Occasionally, not often, he goes off on a political rant. Mostly it is to give an example of how to get people excited or motivated [about your product or idea]. Partly I think is frustration with the management of the greatest country in the world - ours.

In his post The State Of The Union June 15, 2009 he isn’t just ranting, but he is offering a solution. A way for us to take back control of OUR country.
