Democracy in America

After the Supreme Court decision on campaign finance and free speech, The Economist blog, Democracy in America, posits: This Senator brought to you by Gazprom

Well, hmm, I would say this president brought to you by the MSM.

On balance, I agree with the Supremes. Because I like reading books. Being informed.

And one of the reasons I blog is because I wasn't satisfied with having my letters to the editor of the local newspaper truncated or censored at election time...or any other time.

So why do you blog, The Economist?

And what is Democracy in America? A republic, if we can keep it.
