GOP hopeful Pawlenty wrote an op-ed for the Chicago Tribune on his plan to restore the American economy and it's chock full of the usual Free Market Fairy nonsense. First of all, Pawlenty calls for 5% yearly growth for the next ten years and Ezra Klein points out that not only does no one know how to do this, it's never happened before. Daniel Larison points out that Pawlenty's claim about how many people America has liberated is greatly exaggerated.
This may be all you need to know in order to evaluate Pawlenty's "plan": Huge Ego Hewitt thinks it's "an excellent piece."
