Remember how canceling the gas plant was such a big deal? I bet the apologists will be out in force explaining how the fact that we are on the hook for this abjectly corrupt effort to transfer billions of dollars of unearned benefit to Ford’s wealthy developer friends/donors is, “ToTaLlY dIfFeReNt.”

    Oh, you were referring to the rabble rousing from the ‘opponents’ to stir pot after the fact despite acknowledging that they would do the exact same thing originally? I thought you were pointing to someone who actually saw it as a big deal, not a pretend one to score fake political points.

      You’re boring. It’s always the same contrarian bad faith nonsense with you. Look me up if you learn any new songs.

        There goes the the ad hominem waterworks again. If you have some actual reason for us to think that there was a big deal, let it be known, but clearly nobody opposed it. A dog and pony show about how the government failed by doing what was considered an excellent idea immediately beforehand does not make for an actual big deal, merely entertainment.

          ad ho·mi·nem

          adjective

          (of an argument or reaction) directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining.

          So my comment, directed at the positions you always maintain, was an ad hominem?

          Interesting…
