It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, then, that a lot of the tech bloggerati are getting their panties in a bunch over the services being ‘performed’ by Google for the GOP. I’ve seen the grumblings here and there on FriendFeed and Twitter, but the most vocal anti-Republican thus far, not surprisingly, is Marc Canter. Marc Canter, aside from an angry and cranky blogger, was a founder of the company that became Macromedia. What makes him (marginally) relevent these days is that he’s a champion for OpenSource and Google’s OpenSocial initiative.

So, it is still a bit shocking, but given his history not surprising, to see unbalanced (in every sense of the word) commentary on his blog like this :

This post says that Google is the official - whatever the fuck for Republicans.

Now lets see - McCain says he’ll keep troops in Iraq for 100 years, he wants to ban abortion and supports waterboarding ………… isn’t that enough?

And Google is gonna help them?
