I can only imagine this happening to my wife, daughter or girlfriend ONCE. Any delay in investigation or prosecution would have very serious results for the perpetrators. Justice delayed is justice denied. Justice must never be denied.
Frankin has proposed very sensible legislation. I hope it passes.
Have you ever seen a more blatant example of people supporting something that is against their own best interest? They cannot come up with any respect or praise for Franken's efforts. These people do not deserve to live in a democratic society as they have no allegiance to representatives that are trying so hard to keep it that way. Shame on them all. They have shown their true colors. I'm embarrassed for them.
I agree. They would rather have the President of Venezuela buy our elections than give credit to a Senator with a "D" after his name. And they have the nerve to say that Obama is trying to destroy this country.
But the law that Bagger referred to was in effect many years ago and Franken proved that he didn't know that and that he was actually doing nothing but sticking up for his President and working on that wedge issue. Actually, I don't think Franken knows his backside from page 9.
The law that everyone keeps referencing says only that corporations must be chartered in the U.S. The assumption at the time was that U.S. companies would be solely U.S. owned. That is no longer the case.
Senator Franken is simply addressing the reality of global commerce in the 21st century - the implications of which probably could not have been not conceived of when that law was written.
so the title of this thread should be franken shuts down the dnc, acorn, move-on and george soros

"their own interest" line has gotten stae sick.
very very stale.
there is law on the books that block foreign nationals from being involved in the process at the national, state and local levels.
we just dont like freaky franken and his grandstanding.
