Oh I know, and nicely done too.

Needed a glyph of irony that time i guess....

I note with sadness that they seem to have gotten to Kathleen Parker, often a rational voice on the right. Today's column is a big puff piece on the Koch's.

I've noticed that behavior pattern myself.

Not just on this thread either, but on others like it too.

Your un-erring insight and power to the truth is indeed daunting.

De-regulation will lead to environmental responsibility, fairly-compensated safe gratifying full-employment, and safe products, medication, and food for all, universal sustainable prosperity!!! How could we have possibly missed the obvious, just turn your trust over to them.
I've got it, let's all be compliant uncomplaining job-zombies in the new-old Koch-topian feudalistic industrial State and live the dream!!!

Yes, I'd noticed. Somethings going on with her.

Exactly. I love it when these people express incredulity with a "liberal" placing too much trust in government, then they espouse the idea of turning a blind eye to the shenanigans of the business world.

1). Do they not see that power is power and prone to abuse regardless of who holds it?

2). Do they not see the link between the public and private sector power in this country that grows stronger and more obvious by the day?

Jenghazi Rubin is always good for chuckle, particularly the comments section, when she stops bloviating about the black dude in the White House.
