Now I know this is Rasmussen and they don't get many things right, like today they say that Obama has dropped to -22 approval rate, but they surely have this one right unless the number is too low. They say that 70% of Americans think Congress people are for sale, even their own Congresspersons.
Dave Barry (a comedian, though rather astute on politics) had an idea: Take a page from NASCAR. No, not run members of Congress into walls at 200 mph, but make them wear the names of their sponsors. Ideally their size should be proportional to the dollar amount of the campaign contributor.

I'd have to say that 70% of Congressmen/women ARE bought and paid for by corporations and their lobbyists. The voter doesn't have anyone representing THEM, corporate Amerika does.

If you belong to any of several unions you have been in on buying those people, also.
Ah yes, the unions have prospered and are continuing to prosper with the laws of this President and Congress. Didn't you know that Andy Stern attended every meeting in Dirty Harry's locked office last spring helping to write that healthcare abomination?
Well another CEO of Government Motors has resigned and I believe he did so to keep from getting fired by the major shareholder. In the industry people call government motors Obama Motors.
He took them out so quickly when it appeared they were in trouble and gave control of them to the UAW. He screwed around for about 50 days with the oil leak. Now there has to be a reason for all of this. Think about what he said pre-election about taking the corporations down and then think about General Motors. Also, think about how badly he wants oil drilling to stop and how much he can use the spill to bring in cap and trade. He may not be a slave owners but he sure as hell has a lot of us living under his thumb.
