Bonfire of the Absurdities in News New Format

Obama’s Solyndra scandal reeks of the Chicago Way

The Solyndra scandal… has all the elements of a Chicago City Hall story, except with more zeros. More zeros, including the president and his whole bottom feeding crew. “When the government picks winners and losers, who’s the loser? Just look in the mirror, hold that thought, and tell me later.” Heh. Change for the worse you can believe in.

Oooh, but gubbermint can run stuff (like heatlhcare) more efficiently than private enterprise because there's NO profit motive....

Listen up, magical thinkers and unicorn fart inhalers... as long as gubbermint is made up of human beings, there will ALWAYS be a profit motive somewhere. Thus it always was, is and likely will always be.
