[quote=pri_dk][quote]As to your use of the word “rightist”, you do realize that you’re using that word incorrectly, right?[/quote]
Two of my kids are twins. When they were babies they had their own babble language. It was really cute and quite fascinating, but I never bothered to try to translate it.
They’ve outgrown it now and use the same words as everyone else.
[quote]I’ve always been behind the idea of cutting the shit out of the Defense budget and have posted numerous times what a great idea that would be[/quote]
True, you occasionally drop in a comment along the lines of “and we should cut defense and other stuff also.”
But you don’t seem to have the same passion for these issues, even though they represent problems that are orders of magnitude bigger.
Also, I don’t know what you mean by “false equivalence.”
So now I know a little better what the term means.)
But defense waste and green energy waste are far from equivalent. That’s my point.
So, although your outrage may be justified, it seems to be quite selective. And it always seems to come back to Obama.[/quote]
Pri: Okay, to recap. I babble like an idiot baby and I lack sufficient passion for Defense and entitlement cuts.
Gotcha. Glad we got that out of the way. Now, how about the discussion on government picking winners and losers, versus those successful government R&D programs that properly deploy resources and help market drivers? You know, because Brian wants us to have the right jobs.
