The Club for Growth is on a Roll and Lovin' Barney Frank

So I saw this link on Wonkette, had to click on it, and it's true! The far-right ultimate friends of business have seen electoral successes of late (the candidates they backed won Republicanprimary races for open seats in Idaho and Nebraska) - and now they've seen the light and are praising Barney Frank. Well, at least one speech of his excoriating our ridiculous sugar subsidies. A snippet:

... there is no greater contrast in America today than between the free enterprise rhetoric of so many conservatives and the statist, subsidized, inflationary, protectionist, anti-consumer agricultural policies ...

So yes, occasionally people on both the far left and the far right can be right - though you'd never know that from watching "news" shows on television.
