Not even the universal erase program - those several bars of Iron Man - can beat a Boys of Summer infection. You just have to ride it out.

I was always amused by that lyric. As if the Eagles were not driving lux cars while affecting the hip.
I know at least a dozen multi millionaire Obama supporters. This notion that the well off are all Republicans is a GOP meme, it is much better than admiting that being a Republican is mostly about bigotry, not about money. Financial markets and innovation thrive under Democrats. Artistic expression, which translates into major industry in the US, is far better off under Democratic administrations than under Republican.
The only wealthy Republicans I have known were just racists with money. What are they going to do, go Green or Democratic? Hell no. They are homophobes and bigots, and they got to go somewhere, and just like the poor homophobes and racists and sexists, the well off homophobes, racists and sexists are Republicans.

If your money is in the oil business, coal business, Wall Street, or something else the Republicans want to regulate then you're probably a Republican. Maybe you don't care for their social conservatism, but it's a business transaction as far as you're concerned.

Most trial lawyers are Democrats but imho they are the good guys.

But they're necessary in a nation where the government does not hold corporations accountable for their abuses.
