Here’s how the free market works. Libertarian think tanks get paid by private corporations to host conferences designed to push industry-friendly regulation. It’s a beautiful thing to watch.

The emergence of Google as a major lobbying force in Washington is a generally well-reported story. But the Washington Post added fresh, intriguing details over the weekend that reveal the search engine company has been deeply involved with financing and organizing conferences on Internet regulatory policy at a major center of libertarian research — George Mason University.

I support Goole because they fight to keep the web open and free. Slapping a nasty label on it is a desperate act by the desperate insiders that still dominate this forum.

It also helps explain, why they have such a hard time understanding that the Koch's are extreme activists. Or that the SCOTUS is also extremely activist, in that same direction.

This is a sad day indeed. Oh, and by the way, you were correct, as of today we broke our snow record, held since 1880, and just the other day we hit 80 degrees.

No wonder we can't get anyone here to really comment on global warming.

They really are Koch whores, whether they know it, or not.

Hmmm, right around the time the Koch's formed the libe(R)topian philosophy, with the birth of all of it's many "charities" and Weyrich formed ALEC.

Must be a coincidence, eh?

or a massive oxymoron, like "truth in advertising".

This makes Mad Men look tame.

After a couple of nights in the teens, it looks like winter is finally on the retreat around here too.

High winds on garbage pick-up day has left lots of other peoples garbage all over the place. I'll be picking it up over the next few days.
