Excerpt:
How does one put it bluntly? Former senator Chris Dodd exemplifies everything that is wrong in America. Forget his cheap sell out and hypocrisy with his personal (and very profitable)  "favored son" loans from Countrywide. All that tells us is that this creep has a price, and a rather cheap one, too.  Churchill's famous offer to Lady Astor comes to mind. A whore, regardless of his price, is a whore. Her. His. Whatever.
Dodd's actions in the senate, pretending to take the high road, while personally gaining from what amounts to a bribe, proved Dodd's true worth. As a result of his corrupt history, guess what happened?  And guess what he says about SOPA today.

stirring beneath
the threshold
of the bar.
