"Of the people, by the corporations, and for the corporations."
The new Supreme Court decision will allow a corporation to run false attack ads against anyone they wish. That means they can now EXTORT every politician in the U.S. to do whatever they want for profit.
If you think you're getting screwed by health insurance companies, Wall Street, and credit card companies now -- just wait. All consumer protection will be the first to go.
We haven't seen anything yet.

The system is already corrupt as hell. Unions gave obama over 60 million dollars and no one complained. Now we have a bunch from chicago running things. Corruption is to be expected.

Foreign corps are currently banned, remember the money clinton took from the chinese and the stink that made? We the people have not been doing a good job of running the nation, let corporations have a shot and see how they do. :)

You heard what Grayson said. The Supreme Court allows FOREIGN corporations to spend anything they want on campaign advertising. That means wealthy Arabs or the military of Communist China may be exercising their "First Amendment rights" as foreign corporate "citizens" to decide who our representatives should be.
Abandon all hope ye who vote for Republican-style change.

I hope the corportations replace all you losers.
Time for some new blood in DC, in mass.
I'm just pointing out the man's hypocrisy. Nevertheless I do appreciate being labeled a conspiracy nut. Obama has given the banksters trillions of dollars in bailouts. Goldman Sachs, the bank which gave him $994,755 in campaign contributions would have gone bankrupt if not being 30 billion by AIG through the TARP. Now Goldman is giving out $16.2 billion in bonuses. That's about $500,000 per employee. But I guess he's not a puppet, you're right. Now go fuck yourself.
