Jobs was known to criticize President Obama. It was right to have the FBI hound him.

Jobs was known to criticize President Obama. It was right to have the FBI hound him.

The report was compiled during a 1991 background investigation of Jobs by the FBI after former president George HW Bush recommended his appointment to the President’s Export Council.

Tree. Wrong one. Woof woof.

What a load of CRAP they always do this when people die to paint a bad image of them, maybe google is behind it due to low sales of android :P

*“Several individuals questioned Mr Jobs’ honesty stating that Mr Jobs will twist the truth and distort reality in order to achieve his goals,” it said.

Oh really now.. associated propaganda is the one that always twists the truth and the wall street journal= fox news, no need to mention the lows on them..

Anglootaku, I was married in a Japanese shrine, does that make me a shintoist? :)

Of course Steve Jobs was not a perfect angel of superhuman qualities. He was a genius entrepreneur of great vision and great strength to fight for his vision, but otherwise an ordinary person with qualities and defects. To achieve what he achieved, he had to collide with many people and impose his will, sometimes not is a pleasent manner (sent from a MacBookPro)

He is a buddhist http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_jobs

Yes a lot of things does occur when starting any type of business, trial and tribulations but you do need the will power and determination, maybe sometimes hot headed also. Though without vision and determination and just copying things without innovation, how different would Apple have been compared to google and microsoft?

Without innovation in life, things are just clones and die out fast..

The real secret in the dossier is that he used Windows XP at home.
