Business Leaders Say U.S. Political Giving Is ‘Pay to Play’ (http://www.businessweek.com/news/2013-07-24/business-executives-say-u-dot-s-dot-political-giving-is-pay-to-play)

“There’s an impression that there is money being used to buy politicians, and that therefore they are not beholden to the electorate but to donors,” said Steve Odland, president and chief executive officer of the Committee for Economic Development and a former CEO of Office Depot Inc. "

I see a no-warning half-kilometer asteroid strike during the SOTU address as being our best chance of ever cleaning out the garbage.

I'm a cheapskate.....to much damage to buildings and infrastructure that taxpayers have already paid for that we will have to rebuild....I suggest 100,000, good, well armed citizens take the first week of February as one of their paid weeks of vacation and annihilate every living thing in D.C. right down to the dogs and cats. No lost wages, no dip in the economy and we start over with a fresh bunch that will at least for a time live in fear of the people they supposedly represent and not the other way round as it is now.

......or we could just sprinkle a trail of $100 bills down to the Potomac river and watch them drown each other fighting over the money.

The $100 bills might work... the other would be droned to death, besides Obumbles would be playing golf or on vacation...

Suppose we could talk the Hammer Man into arranging something? I mean, the system had his name on it; he has to have SOME pull, right?  :naughty:
