We have entered the Twilight Zone. Everything is being re-interpreted to fit the agenda's of power hungry politicians. I site this excerpt from the article to which you provided a link:"If corporations are people, they must be capable of feeling harassed and intimidated if their shareholders or consumers don?t approve of their political expenditures.Hell, they might even throw a tantrum. Or cry. Corporations have feelings. This isn?t just whacko. It also defies law and logic."I think that there are enough people willing to fall down the Rabbit hole to get what they want, and take everyone down with them.Our challenge is, which one of us is going to be the rabbit that pulls his watch out of his pocket and bravely proclaims, "We're late for calling out this nonsensical creative license concerning reality. We're late for bringing back rationality, clarity, reason and truth". We are very late and halfway down the hole. God I hope that wasn't a flush I heard.These people are running around like children on a playground playing let's pretend. "Let's pretend corporations are a person! Let's pretend God wants us to control people! Let's pretend Obama is bad! Lets pretend there are no poor people! Let's pretend the Supreme court isn't partial! Let's pretend their torture in the Constitution!" It goes on and on. Wow, its like magic! Now we can do whatever we want, and no one can stop us because our pretend justice system says so!Anyone who thinks there is any more substance to this charade we are witnessing from the Republicans needs their head examined.If a corporation is a person, it is a schizophrenic person. Many very different people work in a corporation and most of them don't agree with their boss. So then, is the boss the Corporation? That means all they have done is transfer more power to the CEO. Are people getting this? Do they see what is happening before their very eyes? If the corporation is the CEO, then the CEO IS the corporation. Hmmmm....how will that effect things?Republicans are the 'Let's Pretenders". It worked for their comprehension of religion, it worked for their comprehension of American history. It worked for their comprehension of what America was established for, and now, they are blissfully pretending we all must adhere........as per tradition.Really? Skylight 18 months ago
