I don't agree. Opposition to "Citizens United" is hardly the silliest liberal cause referenced by "Google Quit the Chamber," but I think thats irrelevant. Yahoo did not quit the chamber because of a list of silly liberal causes. They quit the chamber because of SOPA. I think these pro business lobbying groups are pretty close to the root. If their unbalanced approach to technology issues put them in a position where they are loosing membership, that directly undercuts their message and their funding.
