re: #53 O say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave..

So what you’re telling me is that conservatives treat Adam Smith the same way they treat the Bible, that is to say, they blow their favorite parts way out of all proportion and quietly ignore the parts they don’t like.

They don’t read him at all, they just cite the “invisible hand”.

Same people who would insist that “God helps those who help themselves” is a Bible quote.
