Iowa Vote - January 3rd 2012


Guardian: Reports on the money being spent in Iowa “ ..tide is flowing through American politics: a tide of money unleashed by a supreme court decision that opened the floodgates to unlimited spending ..”. Money is the mothers milk of US politics, the Obama re-election committee is expected to raise a least a billion dollars to spend in the General Election, the US Supreme Court has allowed Corporations and Unions to give money to political action committees, this the Iowa vote is just a warm up folks, the poor people of Iowa, NH by the end will be hiding in bunkers to avoid these paid political adverts. In Iowa as the article notes these Super Pacs with lose links to the Campaigns of Romney and Perry have spent four million, expect a few more million before the first vote is cast in January folks. The elite media hate the fact the US Supreme Court has lifted the blocks on spending, but folks its a good move by the Court, Democracy is about supporting a candidate, thus if you’re a business or a union you should be able to raise cash and spent it, its called Democracy, at the end of the day it’s the best system we have folks, flawed but the people get to decide, better than North Korea.
