Moveon.org is one of the leading offenders for keeping people teethered to its email list. Several people have told me it's really hard to unsubscribe.

ImpactNow,
What makes u think they have'nt been hired???
I don't know anyone in DC who has not been Hired by the Corporations except Ron Paul.
They are all their to serve their Corporate Masters not ordinary Citizens like you and me.
Don't believe me?
Look at the Top 10 Donors of Romney and Obama.
Obama saw previously(and still does) see HUGE Donations from Public Unions ,Lobbyists,Big Pharma Firms and Alternate Energy Companies-Guess who all have benefited from his policies so far??
Romney is majority WAll Street ,Private Equity and Big Oil Funded .So its no surprise who will see Policy favors if he comes to the White House.
America has become little more than a Crony Capitalist state today and we (ordinary Americans) are to blame for that.
Regards
Ashish.

Ashish you are absolutely right we have been here before many times –remember Dan Quayle and his many blunders. Unfortunately what we are seeing is the gaps in the spin machines of our politicians. We realize they are not experts in every area but they should hire people who are.
Impactnow,
Thanks I agree wholeheartedly.
But we've been here before with Bush Junior and his Gang(remember the Known Unknowns speech from Rumsfeld)???
Have'nt we?
Its not like we are hitting Breakthrough territory here.
Man,I genuinely miss Ron Paul.
Regards
Ashish.
