The Money Party

The Money Party is a small group of enterprises and individuals who have most of the money in this country. They use that money to make more money. Controlling who gets elected to public office is the key to more money for them and less for us. As 2008 approaches, The Money Party is working hard to maintain its perfect record.

It is not about Republicans versus Democrats. Right now, the Republicans do a better job taking money than the Democrats. But The Money Party is an equal opportunity employer. They have no permanent friends or enemies, just permanent interests. Democrats are as welcome as Republicans to this party. It’s all good when you’re on the take and the take is legal. Michael Collins, Sept. 30, 2007

21. Don't need a proctologist to know which way the ...
Well, I can't finish it but these six are the case study in the decline of a great nation.

And to think, once we had Senators like Beck of Kentucky who said this and was revered by his
colleagues and the public

22. Great stuff - I'll be glad to share it

They need to hear from lots of people even though it's like talking to a dinette table, as Barny
Frank said. I must say, that Mary Landrieu has a good aesthetician, don't you think? She always
looks so perky and alert, just to the wrong things. I'll never forget the interview that she did
with Anderson Cooper, his moment of greatness, when he had to point out the dead bodies in the
midst of her blathering about how wonderful the federal response was.
