Late invite?
Wouldn't you know. I was all set for the $75,000 per couple Mitt Romney fundraiser at the home of David Koch, the billionaire who spent so much money in Wisconsin that he should be made an honorary citizen, and now the dinner might be canceled. My invitation hasn't arrived yet. Damn it! We even got a second mortgage on our house and put $75,000 into envelopes to get ready for the party.

Who will attend the Romney party? Mitch McConnell thinks it is none of our business! He is worried that Obama would "punish and intimidate" big contributors so he is urging Congress to deny all efforts to require disclosing names of contributors to the super PACs. I am not kidding! Doesn't this hit your funny bone? Corporations are people; money is speech; disclosure could lead to violence. It is nuts.

We must reverse Citizen's United. Period.
