How do you explain Campaign Finance Reform to someone...
Who says things like
"who SAYS Money is 'SPEECH'???"

And

"When did a Corporation become a 'Person'?"

She just can't embrace the ridiculous enough for it to make sense to her....

Wish more people (like Scalia) thought her way....

1. How do you explain
to someone that constructing straw men is a fallacy? *looks above* There are limits on individual donations, too, like $2000 maximum per person to a candidate. It's not only corporations who give money, you know. Ask Howard Dean.
