I found it both maddening and amusing that the commie bastards couldn't find a buyer. No wonder they hate capitalism - they suck at it.

The Center for American Progress, a Democratic think tank in Washington, was closing its news site ThinkProgress and laying off a dozen remaining staff members.

They should expect to fail. Their side doesn’t want to pay for anything.

It is a money losing business, why would a capitalist buy it? A capitalist knows when to give up on a sinking ship, a communist doesn't.

RPF is a forum without volunteers moderating, thinkprogress is a think tank with a physical address and employees. I dunno how you can compare the 2 institutions. Also who really knows how well this site is doing financially, for all we know josh and co are sinking in thousands of their personal money to keep it afloat.
