1. The whole idea is UnAmerican, and despicable... |
|
IMHO, of course.
Also IMHO... anyone who votes 'yes' should be served up a hot concrete pizza tout de suite!

What's to stop an enemy foreign government from using a dummy corporation to funnel money into CoC to influence other political groups ("We'll get lots of money if we support CoC polices"), political candidates ("I can get campaign money from CoC if I support their policies"), political incumbents ("I can stay in office with Coc campaign money if I support their policies"), lobbyists ("I'll get lots of lobbying money from CoC if I support their policies") and the national media ("We can get CoC advertising money if we support their policies")? It's so unconstitutional the Supreme court justices who voted for it ought to be impeached! STOP CORPORATE WELFARE!

10. I'm pretty sure that's already happening... |
|
Think Faux Gnus and their owners... we know the extent they will go to support their candidates and propositions of choice. I think it's been happening, and now it's just all the more blatant. GOTP arguments against the outrage should get interesting.

My investment broker at Scruthem and Fucthmem tells me that I'm first in line to use my retirement money to purchase a small French vineyard.
I also have an option to purchase land next to the Great Wall ... on the good side!!!

9. Don't approve of either party using foreign money. |
|
Edited on Mon Oct-11-10 03:13 PM by Confusious
Or private organizations running political ads.
The money, if we have to have it, which I don't like either, should only come from American citizens, or companies based in the United States.
oops, you incorporated in the cayman islands. no political donations for you!
