It's a start.  Some people will automatically shout "yeah, right", but hell, they're talking about it.  It's one step further than the party in power did for the last 6 years. Maybe just maybe, they'll start a positive trend of not making justice for sale.

How weird is is that the fucking DEMS are leading the charges on moral issues now? LOL...

Now that the Dems finally have power, do you really think they're going to cut off the money flow that would allow them to keep it?

It won't happen...  this is a red herring.

if it means cutting of the money flow for the republicans too, yes... think about it...  They'll have the advantage... The big money favors republicans, but the masses of lowly scum like me favor the Dems ;D

I used to despise lobbyists, until I worked with them.  Many of them perform a good service.  They provide lots of information of issues that legislature has to vote on.  Sure there are bad apples, but I have a newfound respect for them (in general).

 ???  Certainly not intentional.  Stop being paranoid.

On the other hand, if I find myself disagreeing with you (and a few others) on a regular basis, then I must be doing something right.   ;D
