This story got my attention because Lebanon PA is my home town. The “Hardball” hack is the one who is clueless, as this report shows (and anyone who has eyes and ears who has seen the video of Obama stating he favors what Clueless O’Donnell says he never said - see below).

I’m continually fascinated by the structure of left-wing thought that argues so strongly against “judgement” and “stereotyping”, “profiling”, etc, and persists headlong into its religion of “reason” to consistently group every capitalist and business owner into a category of demonic, greedy tyrants. I’m sure I could have made that sentence longer. Oh well.
Although, the consistency of the far-left mentality to distort is really expected at this point just as equally as a too-far-right-wing type that takes up the attitude of a pharisee. What’s disappointing is that moderates along with the right don’t throw a flag on plays like this where “double speak” is rampant. (There may be a few, just don’t hear them.)
All that to say, I find this close-mindedness to free market systems quite akin to one of your recent blogs in PaleoBabble. They (single-payer-only) seem to honestly believe that if it makes profit, it is a greed monster. Which is yet again evident hypocrisy because I never hear of government stories where congress would like to lower their salary as a show of goodwill to the people or an official stepping down from a position that is no longer viable. Why is that?
Sorry to ramble/rant.
I just reeeeeeeally agree with you.
