The Senator from Pfizer....
Edited on Thu Jan-21-10 04:09 PM by ddeclue
In light of today's ruling perhaps we need to stop referring to Congresscritters by district or state and start referring to them by their largest donor as in

The Senator from Pfizer or the Congressman from Citibank.

3. Why not just have the corporations assume office
Since they're legally "people," why can't they run for office themselves?

Senator Goldman Sachs, meet President Exxon.
