Obama & Co. are attacking the Chamber of Commerce as 'stealing democracy'; when even the New York Effing Times says it's crap...
A closer examination shows that there is little evidence that what the chamber does in collecting overseas dues is improper or even unusual, according to both liberal and conservative election-law lawyers and campaign finance documents.

Lovely: "If the Republicans win the election, you'll die!"


Well, yeah, taxes DO affect people; why is this a surprise to some?


I shall now leave you to whatever you were doing.
