How is this any different from the Chamber of Commerce Crony Capitalists in the GOP-E?

32 of the GOP Senators have taken huge amounts of money from the Chamber of Commerce whose stated goal is to pass Amnesty.

Once again, how is this any different?

No difference. But human nature is to get pissy when the other side does it and ignore it when your side does it. Frankly, it’s why we’re doomed.

At any rate, Crony Capitalism is the name of the game. And these people play it very well. I suppose kudos are in order...they figured it out and behave accordingly. And reap the rewards. I guess the rest of us are really just suckers.

The difference is that the GOP corruption got adequate publicity. Just giving some equal time.

The quality of a democracy will never exceed the quality of the press.
