Romney backers use same tactics as Putin's Russia

No surprise - Mitt looks at the oligarch-controlled Russia and is saddened that things aren't like that here yet.
Want to know what 8 years of Willard will leave us? Look no further than the billionaire-centric feudal system Putin rules:

One of the biggest shocks for me since getting tossed out of Russia four years ago was coming back to an America that’s taking on Russia’s worst traits: oligarchy, inequality, a two-tier justice system depending on your wealth.

Now that Romney and his financial backers are openly pressuring company employees to vote for Romney, add "Putin-style elections" to the list of Russian traits America is acquiring.

Last year, I first broke this story with Mike Elk for The Nation about how the Koch brothers were ramming political propaganda down their workers’ throats, advising them which candidates to vote for — all right-wing freemarketeers, nearly all Republican — warning their employees that if their slate of candidates weren’t elected, their jobs could be lost due to economic catastrophe.

The Kochs and other employers can do this thanks to Citizens United, which has done more to speed up the Putin-ization of America than Putin himself could have dreamed of in his darkest fantasies. From the time of the New Deal labor laws until the Citizens United decision in 2010, employers were barred from pressuring their employees on how to vote in elections, for the obvious simple reason that employers have an enormous amount of leverage over employees.

2. Voter purges, voter ID, employer voter intimidation, voter registration fraud, rigged polling,

Racists dog whistles, media lies/propaganda from most major media outlets, cuts in exit polling, electronic voting machines with no paper trail, no electronic security of vote reports like the credit card system has, allies of one candidate buying major electronic voting machines, citizens united, campaign ads filled w/lies that have been debunked aired non-stop.
No one from Wall Street except Bernie Maddoff even charged with a crime, Patriot Act still around with warrantless wiretaps and electronic surveillance, trade agreements that allow our jobs to leave, cuts to education that leave the masses even more ignorant
Did I miss anything, I know I must have! We need to fight like never before! The rich are making their move now for total control over us! We must put a halt to this crooked bull shit! In the immortal words of Samuel L. Jackson, WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!
