Eve of Fear

Well the 2nd of November is fast approaching patroits. The rumor is the the new motto of Congress will be "Guns, God but, no Gays allowed. A challenge was thrown down by those of unlimited wealth," We will buy your country if we can!" Now myself I always figured you can buy a beer at the bar, a nice car, heck even a wife in some parts, for the almighty dollar. My Country? The House of "We the People"?

So come the 2nd it comes down to a vote, one man one vote. Since the "Citizen United" decision was inked this has been coming. Flashy ads run day and night by the 6 major media outlets who no doubt aren't shy about the revenue stream. So if the forces of darkness succeed in this effort of purchase my simple question would be,"What did you win for the billions of dollars spent? Favorable legislation for Wall Street, Unregulated Banking, Unrestricted access to our marketplace with goods manufactured with slave labor or, Things not yet mentioned?

I say spend your money, waste your time, have a grand parade on the victory you bought. One caveat, one final word of caution to those who funded this endeavor. America can be purchased, but I'm afraid the currency is blood, that was asking price after all.
