Wow, color me convinced. No way to argue with that ironclad logic.

You may want to forward this along to the US Chamber of Commerce. I'm sure they'd be interested in this startling revelation.

If anyone in here thinks that the dems, or repubs, aren't laopdogs for big business, you're kidding yourselves. Big business loves anyone who has power, and the people who want power, love anyone who'll help them gain it.
