A somewhat tongue-in-cheek headline from Wonkette on a story I’ve been following the past week. First off, the sarcasm.

Now the actual odious story where the author is positively giddy about yelling out of her chauffered car at three little girls.

She even has at least one supporter, one very quick to inject some racism into the argument. Idiot.

As for the rest of the internet, there’s a fairly uniform attack on the “compassionate” conservative financial nitwit.

I love this one, that calls the article a breathtakingly moronic diatribe, which really is the best explanation I’ve read.

And here’s another good one.

This one is great the comments.

I like this commentary which accurately points out that Savage’s column – and gleeful anger – is given out for free as well.

I’d take the lemonade.

Here’s my favorite comment from the above Wonkette article:

“These are suburban kids – they have no idea that anything costs money. They’ve had the welfare of their stable, 2 income households their whole lives. Plus, that lemonade (made with filtered water, organic lemons and raw turbinado sugar in a reusable no bad plastic cup) would probably cost $6 a glass if they ran the numbers.

Now, find the kids in a shitty apartment complex running a drink operation, and they’ll know the cost (35 cents for a packet of “grape drink” mix, diluted twice the suggested amount with water from a hose and a dollar or so to the kid who swiped his mom’s collection of plastic bar cups). Then add a dumbass adult surcharge on top to get up to a buck or two. 5 bucks if they add some codeine syrup. These are the real entrepeneurs of America, people. Kids who know exactly how fucked the world is and take it on its own terms.”

Conservatives LOVE to talk about getting the government out of the economy and “letting the market decide”.

That is, until something goes wrong. As much as the GOP bitches about bailouts, it was a Republican president who pushed for them, and a lot of GOP backers used federal dough to prop up their mortgage houses and banks.

Right now, there is a move to increase a liability ceiling for companies that create environmental disasters. Oh great! The government will hold business accountable for their actions. No protections for the free market, right?

Is the GOP leading the charge on this? No. They are fighting tooth-and-nail against it.

Apparently, they DO want government protection for business. And literally, when dumb business moves land on our shores, they want the American taxpayer to pay for it.

The derivatives market in a nutshell:

Only the source is surprising. Here is a Forbes article pointing out that the Tea Bagging Treason crowd doesn’t have a clue about how taxes work in this country.

I mean, when freaking Forbes is calling you out as dangerous, misinformed dolts, you pretty much are. These guys, while doctrinally fair, aren’t ever getting confused as liberals.

If you are anti-tax, have your facts dead wrong, and are getting mocked by conservative economists, you can take it to the bank that, yes, you’re a moron.
