Oh yah - the electoral college - destroyer of the will of the people. How could tthat have slipped my mind?!?!
So many things I don't understand about our government these last few years. Two mind boggling supreme court decisions: First they decide that the innocence of real flesh and blood is not a compelling enough reason to release them from prison, then they decide that corporations 1) are people, and 2) that their freedom of speech (translated as financial backing for a person or cause) can not be restricted
The congress is not innocent either. In the senate, the republicans are blocking almost every bill that gets introduced by threatening to filibuster everything, and the democrats refuse to change the filibuster rules when the new congress begins...mind boggling.
Smooches,
Keri
