Whenever a big time campaign financier talks about campaign finance reform, you have to suspect an agenda that probably favors campaign financing.

Get so excited that you couldn't even link to the thread? Anyway, I can't really argue since I can't read it. My guess is he would come up with some explanation that since the R's have the Koch Bros. and such, that he has to contribute large sums to level the field. Maybe that is why he would be for reform in the first place, to save him from having to bear such a burden. ;)

Could be. Maybe he hates rich people? It is said that familiarity breeds contempt after all.:p

Could it be that he actually favors Democracy over Plutocracy?

We've all seen that the Kochs don't like the little people being able to stand up to them at all.

I really don't know what the guy is thinking, Mike.

Thanks, Jim.

Take your 1% worshipping, ass kissy bullshit and shove it. Power should lie in the hands of the people through the vote and their elected officials. Not in the hands of two assholes who think we should all suck up to them because they're rich.

Chuck-n-Dave can go to hell for all I care.:)

He's a Democrat. Therefore he must be working from the best of motives ;)

Isn't $2 million chump change these days? ;)

So he's an angel now too? :D

Pete

BlueStreak 03-28-2014 01:13 PM

No. And who said anything about angels? Nobody is an angel, Pete. Not even Ronnie.

Is he a Democrat? How did you come by that information? As to his motives, and those of like-minded people, you definitely have a point. They (we) do.
