That would be the fastest way to change these rulings! OK, I know what you're thinking: The GOP controlled House would never do it and you're right! But, dam it: key Democrats should create a firestorm of media attention as to what corrupt SOB's these 5 Corporate Shills are, starting with Thomas!

If the shoe was on the other foot, don't you think the Republicans would have been raising hell over legit reasons as to why Thomas and his nut job wife, Ginny, have violated the law? If they were the Clintons (Sorry Hillary; you're light years ahead of Ginny Thomas) we never would have heard the end of it and REPUBLICANS WOULD HAVE MADE IT AN ISSUE FOR THE 2014 MID-TERM ELECTIONS! That's how you take back the House, not running away from the mega successful Obamacare law. Honest to God; it's pathetic!

Thom Hartmann said it best, "the Democrats play checkers, while the Republicans play chess."

Bernie Sanders 2016!
