Mike Furlong from Alabama: “Personally, I see little difference
between what the Clinton Foundation is doing and what the Koch
brothers and other super-PACs are doing. Whatever the money is called,
it is an effort to control or guide the political process toward one
group’s interests. The cost is the lack of a political process in this
country that considers the long-term needs the country has as opposed
to short-term gains these groups seek.”

From today's Wall Street Journal and no truer words were ever spoken.
The democratic process is being completely subverted.

"Democratic process" has always, from its invention in Athens to the
present been about money, or power, or both.

In the Athenian system, for example, voting was limited to male
citizens, who had completed military training and had sufficient funds
- perhaps a year's income - to buy a complete set of armour. About 10%
of the population of the city.

Only a moron would try to compare the good word the Clinton Foundation
does around the world with the vote buying and bribery the Koch brothers
engage in.
