He made this public comment on a BI job posting thread [1]:

"@Liberal Insider: Haha, you'd feel pretty silly for writing that comment if you ever saw my twitter feed and read all the horrible things I say about Obama. :)"

I don't get it. "Liberal Insider" said that you need to be a "bleeding heart liberal" who would support Barack Obama to work at BI. Pax refuted this referring to his history of statements against Obama.

I doubt it very much that he was implying you needed to be liberal OR conservative to work at BI.

You can read it that way, sure. But why would anyone with hiring authority ever make a comment like that on a public forum about his own job posting?
