It's a commonly held liberal belief that Firefox isn't a search engine, and the liberal media perpetuates that biased view. Fox News is providing you with the truth, but you just don't recognize it.

That came from Fox Business Network, right? LOL. Pretty bad. Perhaps the reason why the job market is so poor for so many qualified people is due to the fact that the under qualified are somehow hogging too many positions.

Dak, you're completely missing the non-sequitur twist.

911 Carrera: most popular bicycle after Toyota and maserati.

Amtrak: most popular airline after Boeing and Airbus.

See?

Not exactly. Microsoft does actually have a search engine even if it isn't called "Microsoft." As for Apple and Firefox, I don't know where they went wrong.

Yeah but the search engine isn't called Microsoft, so it's still decidedly wrong.
