But the Conquered, or their Children, have no Court, no Arbitrator on Earth to appeal to. Then they may appeal, as Jephtha did, to Heaven, and repeat their Appeal, till they have recovered the native Right of their Ancestors, which was to have such a Legislative over them, as the Majority should approve, and freely acquiesce in.

Unions

2 weeks ago Charles Krauthammer wrote a very nice piece in the WaPo about the influence unions weild over the democrat party.  He linked to this page at opensecrets.org that illustrates the amount of money being given by unions to the democrats.  The numbers are staggering.

Yesterday at NRO's The Corner, Veronique de Rugy shared this graph:

This information is important to keep in mind as we start to hear the left bleat about the Citizens United case allowing corporations to have unfettered influence over elections.  Can't wait to see how Stephen Colbert uses his new Super PAC!
