he's a hypocrite. Just make sure when you bash Republicans about Citizens United that you include the Democrat President in the bashing.

I bash the Supreme Court for Citizen's United. It's not a "Republican" or "Democratic" issue - they didn't do anything. It's a Supreme Court issue.

is that why you mention the Koch brothers and republicans (specifically Scott Walker) pretty much ever single time that you bring up Citizens united?

It's not due to their party affiliation, it's due to what they do. The political party they chose to own is secondary. The Koch Brothers are the biggest corporate owners of politicians and the political process in the country. Multiple political activist groups and lobbying groups trace back to them. Yes, they are very active in their state of Wisconsin.

But...but...the republicans (my party) do it so my boyfriend does it too so he can fight those sorry republicans (my party).

I am not a troll. Don't call me names or I'll tattle.

rich people who fund reps are the devil. if the kochs spent all that money on dems, they'd be a-ok.

it's not that superpacs are bad. or donors. or deep-pocketed supporters. they're only bad when they are for the gop.





all kidding aside, just another example of there being no real line of demarcation between one party and the other. they'll gladly go hand in hand to hell wearing gasoline underwear...as long as they keep getting re-elected on the way.

Not in my eyes. Plenty of Dems are corporate owned, too. The Republicans are simply better at it: always have been.
