Why Republicans Won't Retake Silicon Valley

An anonymous reader writes "Republican consultant Patrick Ruffini, who counts Google as one of his clients, sketches out a way that the GOP could 'win back' Silicon Valley — but he gets smacked down by tech businessman Francis Cianfrocca. 'Patrick's basic thesis is that the VC firms that fund the Valley will rebel at being regulated by [Treasury Secretary] Tim Geithner, who is talking about increasing reporting requirements for both private equity and venture capital. Assuming I understand them both correctly, something tells me that neither Geithner nor Ruffini understand deeply what venture capital is all about.'"

How is this a troll?

It's modded troll because the moderator in question is likely severely mentally retarded, probably with some sort of weird spasms or seizures, and is sat down in front of the computer to gyrate endlessly whilst simultaneously crapping his pants.

That's right retard-moderator, I'm talking to you. I've got karma to burn so blow your points you brain-stem freak.

There's a Clinical Name for It

Psycho-Sociologists refer to it as "The Ayn Rand Phase."
