Wasting Time With Alex

They are not just burrying us in debt..

They are also actively trying to rig the game in their favor. The “they” in question here is the most ethical ever promised Pelosi/Reed congress, and the stink here is another crooked bill that denies anyone but demcorats and their allies an advantage:

The resulting DISCLOSE Act, according to its backers, will ensure transparency in campaign ad funding. Thursday, the House of Representatives approved the bill 219-206, with 36 Democrats and 170 Republicans in opposition to the measure, which was written by Rep. Chris Van Hollen, the Maryland Democrat who heads the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee this year, and New York Sen. Chuck Schumer, who led the Senate Democrats’ campaign panel in 2008.

The bill is full of draconian restrictions on individual political speech expressed via corporations, but gives privileged status to the Democrats’ union masters. A provision pushed by Pennsylvania Democrat Rep. Bob Brady, for example, allows unions to transfer unlimited funds among affiliated groups to pay for political ads with no disclosure whatever. That makes campaign funding more transparent?

I think the author answered their own question there. While the demcorats are trying to lay low and not let the people find out they are turning America into a third rate banana republic economically, they have certainly not given up on doing so with our freedoms as well.

As usual, DISCLOSE was rammed through the House after being introduced with only a few hours’ notice and too little debate allowed. Because Democrats have abandoned doing a federal budget for the year, couldn’t they find a little more time to allow Congress and the people it is supposed to represent to read and discuss this measure at greater length? Next we will see if Senate Democrats are as determined to throw out the First Amendment as were most of their House colleagues.

Why the hell don’t they cut to the chase and just tell us who can vote and how often they can? Scratch that. Just do away with the whole election charade. I mean that’s the end goal here anyway.
