I think it went like this:
Someone posted something that had, as an (unstated?) premise, that Cox would be for less strict regulation as head of SEC than the guy who is leaving.
Club posted something like you bastard liberals just assume that he'll be a lax regulator blah blah Ayn Rand blah blah.
Sidd posted the thing about Nader sarcastically -- basically saying, hey, if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and swims like a duck, it's pretty much a duck, and you'd do the same thing if you weren't reading from the RNC talking points memo.
You bizarrely thought he was making a substantive point about Nader, because apparently you are incapable of normal human conversation circa 2000.
I typed out this thing after a huge meeting, which is completely inexplicable.
Is the innocence really charming? I think not.
