Mark Penn Still Full Of Crap

5:07 pm EST April 21st, 2009 | Politics | 2 Comments

Apparently his work on the Clinton campaign was just the end point in a career packed tight with excrement. But he sure has made a lot of money at it (which speaks volumes about corporate and political America).

    Oliver, I tried responding to your last post in the Jonah Goldberg thread about 5 time with nothing doing, so I’m putting it here:

    Yeah, those corporations are really lining up to support Employee Free Choice, Universal Care, and the like.

    They are. Their message:

    Big business and big government go hand in hand. Big business hates the competition and rough and tumble of the free market where they could suddenly be knocked off their pedestal. This is why they use government to help achieve their aims. To wit:

    Wal-Mart favors a higher minimum wage (to help beat lower wage competitors that can’t compete with economies of scale):

    Agribusiness loves the alternative energy scam that is ethanol:

    GE supports green energy tech so it can sell more of its turbines:

    The reality is that big government represents the ultimate in the status quo. The dynamic, ever changing environment of the free market represents the complete opposite. It’s hard to claim that you want to take on The Man when you push to expand his powers.

    Is he going to join the ranks with Dick Morris of “used-to-be friends of clintons?”
