I am not going to turn this back into a political blog, but I do have to comment occasionally.
I think that the Supreme Court was out of their collective heads to fling the door open and allow corporations anonymous carte blanche in political advertising.
The vicious, anonymous, you-can't-hold-me-accountable-because-you-don't-know-who-I-am political ads we are seeing right now are not what this democratic process of picking representatives is supposed to be about. Probably the worst thing about it is that it makes rational people want to throw up their hands and walk away, leaving only the whackjobs involved.
I don't talk politics on my blog, either--but the anonymous ads are absolutely horrible over here, too. I am so sick of nasty, vicious, condemning ads from both sides. I agree--looks like all we have to choose from are a variety of lying, cheating whackjobs! *sigh*
