Oh, I agree. I really can't tell them apart without a score card any more. They all want the same thing - to go through our pockets for loose change they missed last time - but they use distinctively different rhetoric in their propaganda.

He's "Big Business" of the biggest kind, and therefore, must be sympathetic to Republicans. That's what passes for thought among some lefties. (Yes, there's virtually identical examples from the other side, only with different color bows on top.) Especially those publishing incoherent screeds on the internet, in order to sell advertising.

As for New Republic, I didn't look in any depth, just scanned the headlines on their home page, which seems to have a leftie bent. But, as you note, there's no difference between the left and the right. They're all liars, they're all hypocrites, and they're all fools. The only real complaint any of them seem to have is "somebody else is making a lot of money and not sharing it with us." Yawn.
