Evil
Hold on to your hats, political world... The Hose is about to have a bigger say in who gets elected to public office and who doesn't. Why the change now...?
Earlier this week, in a landmark decision, the Supreme Court ruled that the government cannot ban corporate entities from spending money to weigh in on candidate elections. So for example, if Obama is going after the so-called "fatcat bankers," said fatcat bankers can pool their money together and start running ads bashing Obama. On a smaller scale, you can really see how money from corporations and unions can really influence a bunch of Senate and House races.
And in steps The Hose... with our corporate coffers brimming, we're in a position to support candidates who uphold the values of The Hose. I, for one, demand that anti-depressants be covered at 100% w/ no co-pay in any healthcare reform bill. I think Xtian will demand an allotment of morning-after pills every quarter. Manolo will demand amnesty. KillerB is lobbying for government-subsidized back hair removal. Sparks is trying to line himself up with a high-paying, low-responsibility government post, something like being the U.S. Ambassador to Martini-kistan.
