Theater of the Beef-Plant Absurd

Can we just call the beef-plant debacle what it is: a foolish bipartisan embrace of a corporate-welfare scheme gone awry? Both Dems and Republicans pushed for it, and Barbour wrote a letter in support of it. It was stupid and wasteful. Let's stipulate that. All I want to hear is how all these yucks are going to keep such a thing from happening again, instead of a bunch of blame flowing every direction when it's obvious that people of both parties were snookered and hogtied.

Yes, Ledger, the "Beef plant orphan has many dads," as we've been pointing out for a while now. But y'all left out one from your editorial–what about Haley Barbour, who wrote a letter in support of the beef-plant scam? Why do you boyz protect Haley so?
