politics and strange bedfellows

Me, I'm rolling my eyes at this section of the GOP platform:

We do not support government bailouts of private institutions. Government interference in the markets exacerbates problems in the marketplace and causes the free market to take longer to correct itself. We believe in the free market as the best tool to sustained prosperity and opportunity for all.

Unless it's something important, like banks failing. Because banks are made of rich people, and rich people aren't allowed to really suffer.

This is where I call shenanigans on anyone who claims that the Republicans stand for small government and minimal interference.
