Go Harry…

Well…today is not much better than yesterday but I thought I’d better do something here or none of you will keep coming back here…so, I thought I’d touch on the new constitutional amendment being proposed by Harry Reid that will reverse the wrongheaded supreme court decisions in Citizens United and McCutcheon that allows unlimited dark money into political campaigns. He specifically said what we all believe…at least the sane of us…that corporations are not people and money is not speech….both of these decisions reversed a hundred years of precedent and negated laws that are really necessary if we are to protect our democracy from the corrosive effect of money as evidenced by the Kochs trying to buy themselves the senate; to ensure their dirty energy profits forever. I know that this amendment is tilting at windmills…the chance of its passage is remote at best…but the political use of championing it is necessary to put the repubs on the spot for supporting this unlimited money…and their constantly kissing the Kochs asses…geez…
