6. No, it's that the POV you attempt to parody is very much alive and well and DU.
Just posting from the center-right on DU is not sufficient to alert people that you are being ironic; there are dozens of posters who, without a hint of self-awareness, are demanding that "free market" principles be allowed to work in the case of GM et al.

I have yet to see any of them attempt to reconcile the disconnect between the no-strings-attached Wall Street bailout and the "restructuring" they demand at the the Big 3. Nor have I seen any of them attempt to reconcile the "unfairness" they percieve in a bailout of UAW workers with the lack of concern with fairness as to Wall Street workers and execs.

So, true dry? No. Indistinguishable from the genuinely held opinions of a large clutch of DU "New" Democrats...
