Vote4Me: Rejected by the iPhone App Store

Haha lighten up. Of course the quotes are taken out of context... that's the point.

Seems pretty neutral to me if he's got both parties represented, and there are already other apps on the iPhone that are specifically geared towards one party that will be largely useless in 2 days (the Obama for President app for example).

My guess was that they were worried about copyright issues with the clips? It just doesn't seem controversial enough to reject it on that basis alone.

Doesn't it disturb you that political discourse has sunk so low that out of context quotes are enough evidence on which to judge candidates?

The Obama app at least had a fair amount of utility. What utility does this app have?

Yeah. The Obama one was incredibly functional, and while I haven't seen any follow-up stories on it, I'd love to see how it was used after its release.

This one seems like crude garbage. Whether Apple should have that control is another question, but if the argument is "does this app have merit?" the answer is no.

Learn to laugh.Its a fun app.

Use common sense to filter out 'out of context quotes' while making judgment.Thats how human beings work.

Based on precedent, most voters probably don't qualify as human beings then...
