Minor-League Bad Guy Jobs Calls Out Google
    
		Steve Jobs is a real American hero. It's tough to knock  the guy, but I'll try anyway: His products are almost always closed and  expensive, and he has a penchant for going after journalists for doing their  job. 
Despite these flaws, Jobs generally has the moral high  ground, and that's why his recent Google comments sting so much. Google is  famous for claiming to "do no evil." Jobs isn't buying it, saying it's  all a load of...well, you fill in the blank.
Jobs' beef seems to be over Google going after the iPhone:  Jobs isn't competing in search, so why should Google enter the phone wars?
I don't get it. I'm in favor of competition, and as long  as Google competes with the iPhone fairly, what's the beef? Clearly, there are  other ways Google has violated the "Do no evil" code. 
Is Jobs right to be irritated? You tell me at  [email protected].
