Keep repeating this point: FOREIGN money is financing the GOP

This is the predicted result of the Citizens United ruling last January.


The Supreme Court has sold our election process to foreign entities... entities that are financing the Republican Party.



If we don't fight back against this, our country is lost.

4. Here's a rude news flash: that's what spawned the Abramoff investigation
Edited on Thu Oct-07-10 07:11 PM by leveymg
It's called bribery. It was also espionage. Big time. Saudis, Israelis, Gulf Arabs, Turks, Russians, Chinese, Malaysians all handing crooked intel-connected operatives like Black Hat Jack really BIG checks for distribution to ranking GOP members of the Intel, Armed Services and Ways & Means Committees. Look at Sibel's list.

Even the puny Indian Affairs Committee got some. So did Karl Rove.

Unfortunately, Hollywood isn't ready to tell the story of how the American political process was bought and paid for by a bunch of foreign banks, organized crime networks, crooked defense contractors, and intelligence services operating through professional influence peddlers like the unfortunate Mr. Abramoff.

5. Rich Arabs are funding the GOP
there's nothing wrong with Arabic people but the mega rich ones are deciding what happens to America. Yet the same people are calling Arabs for everything!

7. I wish this was all over the news

It would turn off a lot (or at least some?) of repug voters.

8. Well, there's hope. With Rachel and Keith hammering it, there's a chance...
...it'll seep into the NBC nightly news and then spread to the other networks.

But we can't count on that. We still need to BE the media as much as we can.
