15. No, "Corporate" is an apt description of our Political Leadership on both sides of the aisle.
Edited on Wed Jan-06-10 01:32 PM by ShortnFiery
What's INVENTED are all these extraneous labels such as left vs. right, conservative vs. liberal, etc.

It's a simple question everyone should ask: Does THIS political leader serve "the people" or "the wealthy (upper 1%) corporate elite."
