Jon Stewart is pretty good at distilling the absurdity of certain political events into a just few words. Granted, a lot of them need to be bleeped, but with this week's Supreme Court decision tossing out aggregate limits on campaign donations, there's plenty to curse about. Now that wealthy donors can write checks for the maximum allowable amount to as many candidates as they want, Stewart says, "the last great hope of preserving our democracy from the corrupting influence of money is carpal tunnel syndrome." Thank goodness, America is "finally rid of the corrosive influence of not enough money in politics."

No, they only want you not to argue with them about what they want to do. They don't care if you give a crap.

Because the parties have influence in registering voters, and because it has been that way for a long time.
