Bad, Very Bad

You know things are bad for Republicans when they are supporting further socialization of the banking industry. But Jaz and Kent do just that. And as if it couldn't get much worse Kent now decides that he is not a fiscal conservative. The real determiner, though, of how bad things really are in the Republican Fantasy World is when they use right wing nut job Stanley Kurtz to explain to them the perils of our economic crisis. Yep you guessed it, amazingly it's the Democrats fault without a single mention of the last 8 years. But an actual economist's account of how the crisis happened? That's "hair splitting sophistry." I'm so glad Republicans are not part of the national conversation anymore.

*Update:

I couldn't make this stuff up. What happens when you argue using as a source some Republican Fantasy World pundit? Well, Jaz, just comes right back with a full citation to none other than a National Review editorial! That's right, despite the fact that none of the editors at the right wing National Review are experts in economics or really even economists (Rich Lowry majored in English studies), the best way to combat wacko National Review writer Stan Kurtz is to instead just use National Review editorials. Brilliant. Actually the Kurtz article would be a better source. I wonder if my link to Huffington Post will suffice for Jaz?
