Hello everyone,
Thanks a million everyone for recommending my diary yesterday on the investment practices of Hobby Lobby. Last I checked, there were over 12k likes on Facebook. It is the highest recommended diary ever for me.
However, much more importantly than me celebrating a diary is to recgognize we need to fight corporate control of our country's politics. With the McCutcheon decision handed down today, we are ever more at the mercy of wealthy powerful people controlling the decisions that go down in our small towns, state legislatures, and Congress. Much of the information they disseminate is filled with deceptions.
It is left up to us here at Daily Kos to fight with our minds and our keyboards corporate control of our lives. I am thrilled and honored that you will allow me to occasionally type some blather here at this site. Again- thank you and continue the good fight.
The Washington Post earlier today
Hobby Lobby did not comment for the Mother Jones story.
But plenty of other people did.
“Wow,” said the liberal DailyKos.
2:01 PM PT: The first response has been sent on behalf of Hobby Lobby
It's a Romneyesque- I didn't actually move the company with my bare hands so I'm not responsible type response.

2:03 PM PT: A response has been leveled at Mother Jones attacking their reporters
ad hominem. It sounds familiar to the Romneyesque- I didn't personally move the company with my hands- so I'm not responsible.
