Excuse me honey, but I got something stuck in my craw. Can someone please explain to me why these 501(c)(4) and 501(c)(6) organizations running lying political ads on TV and affecting our democratic elections are any better than money launderers????? Good Lord Almighty, these lying jackals are spending hundreds of millions of dollars trying to cheat folks out of their votes and we have no idea who they are, where they got their money, or what they stand to gain by meddling in our elections! What we've got on our hands is a pack of skulking sneak billionaires and job-outsourcing multi-national corporations hiding behind overpaid professional fraudsters. These wordsmithing PR operatives would sooner give up their own mothers than rat out their rich sugar daddies. Let me tell you something, honey: you are taking your life into your own hands if you get in between all these greedy bloodsuckers and their money, and nothing scares them more than an informed, energized electorate. Why, if we caught on to all these democracy-haters and they couldn't secretly funnel hundreds of millions of dollars into cheating us out of our elections, they wouldn't be able to rig the game in their favor! Good Lord, they'd actually have to compete on a level playing field without special tax breaks, sweetheart legislation, bail-outs, anti-worker trade deals and corporate welfare! Listen up, folks: People who don't want anyone to know what they are up to are up to no good. These people running these lying ads on TV and radio despise you and think you are dumber than a knuckle-dragging neanderthal. You don't lie to people you respect. And, the fact that they are lying tells you that they don't think their case can win on its own merit. It couldn't be plainer: these folks think you are stupid and they know the truth ain't on their side. I don't care if you are a Democrat or a Republican, if you love this country you know it's a disgrace that our elections have become the Battle of The Lying Billionaires vs. The People. Regular folks can scarcely hope for an automated reply from their elected officials, and skulking sneak billionaires and job-outsourcing multi-national corporations get their phone calls returned because secretly funneling hundreds of millions of dollars into lying to voters at election time is considered "speech." Honey, stop sitting there with your butt hanging out wondering what just happened. Turn off your TV, get yourself some election facts, and vote this November 2nd with your utmost intelligence, integrity and reason. Your beloved nation needs you to wise up.
