  1. The "both sides do it" isn't a defense. It doesn't make it right.

  5. Wyrd80 No.  He said pretty much the exact words "both sides do it", which is pretty much saying, we can't do anything about it so we need to throw up our hands.  Money in politics was a problem before Citizens United too.

  6. Wyrd80 No.  Not even if it's "fully disclosed".  The government is in thral of wealthy donors many of whom are quite public about they way they buy politicians off.

  7. Wyrd80 "Both sides do it" doesn't make it right.  And I don't see the need to continue this.

  10. Chad K I don't think they do, but so what?  "Both sides do it" isn't a defense no matter who uses it.

  11. Chad K Wow.  There's a strawman.  I never said that.
