> Don't act like complaints about the courts are just liberal tantrums.

They're not usually so much tantrums as biased, hypocritical argumentation developed backwards to arrive at the politically desired result.

Again, s/liberal/conservative/g and you get a comment just as accurate. But do continue to beat the "liberals suck" drum.

Except it wouldn't apply to this thread or the reaction to this event.

If you're being a jerk, and I'm commenting on your behavior, I'm not making any kind of error if I don't mention how Steve was being a jerk two weeks ago. And honestly, insisting that I talk about Steve would be an effort to deny responsibility and distract from your own behavior.

While corporations are cheering about the devastating the ability of the EPA to attempt to enforce its writ, "environmental protection", it doesn't make someone a jerk to lament the negative impact therein.
