Now that the Supreme Court is full of conservative and therefore activist judges, it is legal to buy any politician.

Why is this illegal. Oh. Only the richest Americans and for-profit corporations are allowed to buy politicians?

Thank god we have the tea party to tell us it is good. Even god can now buy any politician he wants. The Supremes said so.

I guess god will buy enough politicians to made pedophilia legal. Then too many nuisance law suites will also be eliminated. Amazing how many problems disappear once buying a politician is made legal.

Normally a sales tax is collected on all politician purchases. But wacko extremist want tax cuts only for the rich. So buying a politician is tax exempt.
