1. The Chamber is a horrible influence on politics.
Nice video.

Incidentally, a Democratic candidate for Congress was the head of a front group started by the Illinois Chamber of Commerce. DK Hirner was Executive Director, and still works for, the Illinois Environmental Regulatory Group. They work closely with the Chamber to weaken environmental regulations on behalf of major corporate polluters. She's the "Democrat" running against Aaron Schock. She was even recruited by local party leaders.

We have to stop letting conservative party leaders think they can recruit ridiculous candidates like this.
