Atlas Shrugged: The Mocking

Overheard at The Cafe

I cannot begin to tell you the irony of Ted Cruz going after Devon Anderson. She was the one who opened the investigation in the first place. She was appointed by Rick Perry!

Charles Pierce:
Even before the Brussels attacks took over the news cycle, it has been lost in the campaign coverage that the Tailgunner really has let his authoritarian freak flag fly. Regularly, on the stump, he promises to unleash the full weight of the Department of Justice on Planned Parenthood. He also said he would pardon the two ratfckers who phonied up the famous videos.
Listen, as a Texan, as a Houstonian, I was deeply dismayed and disappointed to see the Harris County district attorney bringing criminal charges against someone who went undercover to expose what appears to be vast criminal conduct by Planned Parenthood. I think he performed an incredible public service and I'll tell you this. I've pledged if I'm elected president, on the very first day in office, I intend to instruct the U.S. Department of Justice to open an investigation into Planned Parenthood and to prosecute any and all criminal conduct by that organization.

Cuba-Havana Ted is a Wall St.-fed insider pretending to be Mr. Tea Party, so no surprise.

It's all a masquerade.

It's just hysterical, all of these people suddenly finding out all of this dirt on their party. Did they really think they were intellectuals?

(Probably)

I remember that well. Both Yglesias and McArdle showed the same lack of empathy, which probably means that Yglesias must police himself to pretend to care about workers. In his haste he neglected to observe the proprieties.
