E.J. Dionne Hyperventilates

E.J. Dionne is calling for Americans to take to the ramparts after the Supreme Courts "reckless" decision on campaign finance last week. Typical over the top, emotional, factless bloviation (and I oughta know!) from the WaPosts chief mouthpiece for the Administration.

But there is something here--Dionne advocates for having corporate Chief Executives appear in ads that they sponsor to take responsibility for what is in the ad--like politicians do. I'm open to that--in fact, the more I think about it, the more I like it. Then, we'll have the opportunity to let the market punish corporations for their views.

And union leaders too. When they spend members money make 'em own up, in the ad itself.

Hey when the SEIU comes after big bidnez maybe somebody will make an ad about the transgressions of Dave Beck, Jimmy Hoffa and Jackie Presser. Wouldn't that be a hoot.
