I think the public disclosure lists provide us a clue as to which businesses to PATRONIZE, and who support the U.S. Constitution, and don't cave in to extrotion schemes from the ACLU for sex deviates, baby killers, racists, etc.

We can vote with our wallets and let those who will allow these liberal loonies and activist Judges that we can do business elsewhere.

After the Christmas word removal by certain retailers for fear of offending any Muslims, etc., I made it a point to avoid their stores and shop elsewhere, along with writing and letting them know why.

Didn’t we just have a Presidential election with secret financing?

Leftists enforce their preferences as a bogus matter "equality" while conservatives are expected to tolerate their depraved indoctrination of our children. Unless and until we treat this attack on our children as the mortal threat to our freedom that it is, they will win.

And it will get worse as time goes on and more of these types of issues come up. It may very well come to the point where "Choosing The Right" guarantees violence and persecution...again. If that's what were called to endure..then that's what we'll do.

John 15:18 - 20
18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

I know some people who are receiving ongoing harrassment at work and in their businesses over their donations for Prop 8.

There's a easy fix. Require public disclosure only of donations in excess of $10,000. Since most people seldom give that much, what they give should not have to be reported since they don't exercise "undue influence." I think that strikes a sensible balance between public concern about lots of money in politics and allowing people to participate in the political process without worrying their views will be known to people who don't care for them.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

I have no problem with people voting with their dollars by not patronizing donors they disagree with politically. However, the real problem with such donor list disclosures is that they expose donors to outright acts of intimidation designed to dry up those financial resources. When I say intimidation, I am talking vandalism and other agencies of the left such as the courts....something the left is very good at. And if you think this does not go on all day long and out in the open, there is a bridge for sale in Brooklyn you might want to look into.

But not everyone feels comfortable making his or her positions public -- many worry that their choice might offend or anger someone else. They fear losing their jobs or facing boycotts of their businesses.

Isn't tolerance of someone else's point of view or lifestyle a wonderful thing?

BARF!

Sounds like hypocrisy is alive and well on the Left, wouldn't you agree?
