Buy an Office? Legal. Sell an Office? Go to Prison.

Donna Smith presents some compelling questions in her article, Two-Faced Corporate Personhood: Elected and Convicted, as to why it's a criminal offense -- a felony -- to sell a political office, yet it's perfectly okay, as sanctioned by the Supreme Court of the United States, to buy one. Read the link here and let me know what you think. 

Also, here's an episode of The Colbert Report dealing with the question of corporate personhood. Although almost a year old, it's as fresh and timely as if it were filmed yesterday. Enjoy Stephen Colbert and The Word...
