Ah yes, an obviously left leaning author accuses several of is local representatives of wrong-doing. Lets take it as cannon and use the opportunity to pile on an bash them Republicans. After all, it is the severity of the accusation that matters, right?

- MagicWishMonkey 12y agoDidn't get the memo? Both sides are exactly the same.
- seanflyon 12y agoOddly enough I didn't get that memo. Could you explain it for me?
- terrence_giggy 12y agoContext matters. I see a lot of talk on this thread about the motives of Congressmen who are going to attack a company so they can make their big donors happy. How about we flip the script and put the same argument to the author: What gets funding for scientists in need of public grants? Maybe attacking opponents in an election year will get you good favor of those who control said public funds? I doubt either is true (the author having funding motivations behind the article, or the representatives out to kill a business for their lobbying group).
