From The Hill, just a few days ago...
In full disclosure, I think the Disclose Act is a complete joke, and it is getting funnier.This legislation, as the Democratic sponsors would probably admit to you over a couple of drinks, is designed to give Democrats a better chance to win election this year and into the future.What is the Disclose Act?
According to The Hill, the Disclose Act is “the Democratic response to a January Supreme Court ruling that overturns limits on spending by corporations and unions in political campaigns. It would tighten transparency requirements associated with corporate and union contributions, including forcing the CEOs of businesses to appear in ads funded by the company.”
The Disclose Act has been shepherded through the Congress by the two guys who are most responsible for electing Democrats to the House and Senate, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (Md.) and Sen. Charles Schumer (N.Y.).
This bill isn’t about high constitutional principles. It isn’t about protecting the freedom of the American people. And it isn’t about creating private-sector jobs or cutting the deficit. -snip-
