I agree that both parties are equally guilty on the issue of being receptive to corporate attempts at using legislation to protect their revenue streams. Unfortunately, the democratic party has done a nice job of spinning the idea that only republicans take money from corporate america.
The truth is that both parties have their virtues and their shortcomings, and both parties want you to take sides and not look at the issues on their merits (it makes their jobs easier). Republican's tend to be strong champions of economic freedoms, while democrats are usually good proponents of individual freedoms (though clearly not in this case).

I agree, this legislation must be stopped.
