As of today, corporations are 'citizens' too, and thus can exercise unlimited financial support to political campaigns. This won't end well. I'd love to hear from the Libertarian(s) in the crowd on this one........

we won't know until they sit down and discuss it with DuPont, IBM and Goldman-Sachs. I'm sure whoever they back will have the best interests of the working man at heart, right? It's like we can't possibly lose. Thank you, Repubs, for giving us Alito, Thomas and Roberts. The next conservative nitwit I hear ramble on about activist judges might want to ponder this decision, which might well be the most far-reaching legal precedent the court has given in decades. This is a prime case of an issue that goes far beyond liberal or conservative. Similar to the recent decisions on property rights, this one strikes at the foundations of what our founders tried to establish: a nation which values private property, free speech for individuals, and was leery of corporations(private holding companies in the 18th century) that use power and influence to screw the citizenry.

That's true. Look at how ACORN is allowed to do whatever they want cuz they gave Barry a few duckets. I think it's a good thing, let's just force this corruption down people's throats until they truly get fed up. Cuz up until the asswhoopin in Mass the voters were sheeple. They still may be.

I love how the DNC fagboys here are bitching about this but didn't complain once about eminent domain being bitch slapped by their court nominees.

There's no proof of that except for a few Florida Dems saying that the ballots were too hard to read. I guess the old folks who had been voting for 60 odd years completely forgot how to 1) read 2) vote with the punch card.
