Naughty Nader!

Ralph Nader has accepted money from the Republican party which wants to see some of the Democrat votes "stolen". How terrible!... oh wait, this doesn't change Nader's platform at all and simply helps counter the damage done to Nader by the Democrats and their various tricks. It sounds like a bad thing to accept money from the conservatives and corporate elite... but then again, that's what Michael Moore does when he makes his movies on major corporate productions. The thing is that it doesn't CHANGE what he says in the movies. It's the same thing, yet nobody seems to have a problem with Moore. It is also the same when Rage Against The Machine produced their obstensibly socialist marxist records on a Sony record label. People did have a problem with that, though. I never did, but some people did. Then Tom Morello summed up what some of us already had figured out: Rage Against the Machine sold fourteen million records of totally subversive revolutionary propaganda. The reason why is that the albums were released on Sony and got that sort of distribution.
I think people should worry less about the fact that the Republicans gave Nader donations (ignoring the fact that the Democrats have consistantly tried to sabatoge the man) and more about the fact that the Democratic party is funded and controlled by the same big-wig multi-national corporations that fund and control the Republican party. Sorry for the interuption. Please, continue enjoying the puppet show 2004.
