Didn’t Obama jump on the SCOTUS for opening this type of practice, and vowed to fight it? Now the Dems are asking to be allowed to do the very same thing at a different level. I want to hear from all the Dems who lambasted the SCOTUS. I want to see them Lambast the party for trying to pull this crap. And what makes this even more scary is, Obama has taken over the census. All that talk about communism is starting to sound more legit.
Sorry, I must have lost my mind. Please forgive me. I forgot that things are only crooked and wrong if a Republican comes up with it.

WASHINGTON - Members of
Congress
may soon be back in the business of raising soft money, the unlimited corporate and union donations that a 2002 law bans them from collecting for their campaigns.
The National Democratic Redistricting Trust is asking the
Federal Election Commission to let lawmakers raise soft money for the legal fights likely to develop as congressional district boundaries are redrawn after this year's census. How a district is drawn — and which voters are included in it — can have a big impact on whether a Democrat or Republican gets elected to represent it.
The Democratic group says lawmakers should be allowed to raise unlimited donations because they wouldn't be used for
elections. Members of Congress were banned from raising soft money for elections due to corruption concerns
More Demo hypocrisy
