It must feel so good but lonely to be an absolutist. The purity of thought and deed is admirable.

Do what? When did it become "absolutist" or "purist" for conservatives to oppose government subsidisation of preferred industries, especially when those subsidies are being given out ostensibly to help "combat" a non-existent "problem"?

I thought that was pretty much just baseline, mainstream, bargain basement conservatism. When did it suddenly become "absolutist" to simply be "conservative"?

When you propose that I have sunk to the depths of degradation, that’s when. If you want to have a civil discussion mind your manners.

No, it’s not OK to waste taxpayer’s money on green job boondoggles.

The article was drawing a comparison between Romney’s investment failure and Obama’s.

My point was there is really no comparison given Romney’s gamble on the taxpayers dime (albeit wrong move) loss was about 1/600th of Barry’s.
