From Sen. Jim DeMint (R–Wingnuttia), praising the Citizens United decision that allows big corporations to directly contribute to political campaigns:
I think people should be able to come together in associations and organizations and spend money to get their message out. I think that’s going to promote the democratic process, instead of really what we’ve got now, is where you essentially give the labor unions carte blanche over our system, grassroots as well as spending.
Um, yeah. We really need to do something about the skyrocketing power of labor unions in American life. Especially after that economic meltdown they caused in 2008. You’d think people would learn.
