President Obama urges the Senate to stand up for ordinary Americans and pass the DISCLOSE Act, a bipartisan bill passed by the House of Representatives which will require corporate political advertisers to reveal who’s funding their activities.

Did he announce there will be no further election in the country.
@greycloud24 dude you moron, those are something that republicans are responsible for. did you know that Dwight d Eisenhower, a republican was reponsible for building major roads and highways in the US dude democrats suck, socialism sucks, it doesn’t work to spend your war out of anything just look at europe. your whole party is bs
……is this gonna put a limit on how much unabombers can contribute to this gobbers next SCAM-pain? Me thinks = nope
@maskedphrogg rahm emanuel is jewish, while jim wallis is a christian. just because you say i am only imagining does not make my statement false. so yeah, grow up and face reality, there is no religious conspiracy in the obama administration. its the right wings who fight for theocracies. tea party anyone?
@maskedphrogg No, I think we are agreeing on the same principles and approaches. My original statement was made to suggest that public officials are the sole contributors to the content of campaign adds. We should not have private interests contributing to or influencing those campaigns. By only having those who are legally obliged to the public produce such, we have a more active and direct accountability and participation among the public in this domain.
@InterntzTrollerinz Which socialism are you calling a fraud specifically?
The socialism that provides you public schools and fire departments? Or perhaps you mean the socialist police service, or the heinous socialistic public parks! Or maybe, the socialist public roads, and the socialist public transportation! Or better yet, the socialist public mail service, public medicare maybe? How about public waste disposal service, sanitation? Socialism is everywhere! OMG!
you want to limit the power of speical interest, its easy, public financeing of elections, you can not take a job in any feild that you voted for legasation that helped that industry for 10 years after leaving office. No gifts, trips ect from lobbist, no life time benifits or pensions for congress, a 40 hour work week with 2 weeks paid a year like the rest of us saps. (it would elimante half of the clowns up there if they knew they were going to have to work for what we pay them
Socialism is a fraud, a comedy, a phantom, a blackmail.
..THis is all done so Obama can solidify his position for president, this and letting over 20 million mexicans into the country !!! this is going to ruin this country and what really bothers me is he is doing it soley for VOTES only !!!! the question is are you people going to sit on your asses and let him do this !!!!!
@dadreamzworld there you go again with that racist talk. you are a very hatefilled person. Are you mad because you didn’t get your welfare hand-out this month? Are they having cut-backs in your states welfare system? Everyone can see the hate for ‘White people’ and ‘America’ that you harbor. A lill’ counseling would do you good. And would you real want another person to ‘as you wrote’ – “blow your(my) brains out” ? So much hate, so much racism, you need so much help. mommy crys for you, I know!
@dadreamzweed Put the straw down little kid.
You’ve sniffed enough crack for one day!
@greycloud24
I have been to the White House propaganda site, and it’s more of the same. Obama good, Republicans bad, “blame Bush”, spend more, etc. etc. etc. Partisan attacks are not evidence of transparency. Well, I am happy this “measure” failed, because I don’t think it was an effort in transparency. It was an effort to subvert the 1st amendment, and rewrite election rules less than 100 days before the November Congressional elections. Barry is transparently self serving if anything!
@greycloud24 Our Democratic Party representatives in Washington will borrow $1.6 trillion this year, or about $15,000 for every household in the country. Over the next 10 years our federal government is expected to borrow an additional $8.5 trillion, and this is on top of the 13 trillion we currently owe. These figures are beyond being enormous, especially since we already pay one in seven dollars in interest.
@InvictusX100 Nope. Is this what you learned at your netroots convention?
@wantsvictory
Okay. You made me laugh HARD when you said its an attempt to subvert the 1st amendment. How? In what way is disclosure subverting the 1st amendment? And to that extent, HOW does the first amendment apply to corporations? Why? If you can answer even half of those questions…well….you can’t. But it’ll be funny to see you try.
Pound sand socialist scum!
