The one with the gold makes the rules, in this cases its the mega telecoms with the gold(well dollars).
but really unless a congress critter ends up in risk of being "voted off the island" hes not going to listen to the letters he gets when Corporation_01 just handed him tends of thousands of dollars or more. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports |

| The only anti-business as usual group of late is the TEA party.
A problem with the TEA party is it's conservative / traditional agenda along with political and economic reforms. I'm uncertain how well thought out their agenda is, how cohesive it is, and if it doesn't contain unnecessary baggage that will keep it from ever succeeding. -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." |

 lesopp join:2001-06-27 Land O Lakes, FL | I am not a TEA party member, but I am six months unemployed and I'll take any agenda that creates real jobs. I do not see the current progressive agenda doing that, I have grown tired of the rhetorical saved or created mantra and am willing to give the TEA party ideals a chance. Guess how this independent and many others will vote on November 2nd? |

He promised change, and bipartisanship, then appointed the most partisan member of the house to be his chief of staff, and excluded Republicans from just about every meeting on significant legislation.
I would like to think the TEA party stood for something, but after the bipartisan candidate has established the most partisan executive since FDR, I'm not holding my breath.  -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." |
