In reply to the discussion: When Do Low-Income Americans Get Their White House Meeting? [View all]Autumn
(44,762 posts)89. Common Dreams is not Ron fucking Pauls site. That is a lie.
Maybe you just have a defective Google, or maybe you Google Ron Paul all the time. I don't get it on mine. Nader is irrelevant, except to people who have no point. The article is true, JP Morgan's Dimon and Goldman Sach's Blankfein do have access to the White House. That's not a smear, that's the truth.
Do have a nice day, I'm done talking to you. Common Dreams is NOT Pauls site.

I've always been in favor of raising the cap. I'm not sure if you can look at all 10,000+ posts.

Your quip is ridiculous. Do you know why they're even there? Or is this just hyperbole?
