John Oliver on Congressional Fundraising
Next time you feel inclined to whine that Bernie Sanders doesn't have big donors remember that the entire congress does.

RE: John Oliver on Congressional Fundraising
I love the idea that the spirit of the law is just ignored.

Senators and Congressmen/women must not accept money on Capitol grounds.

So we build a call center across the street and use 2/3 of our time begging for money.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
