Worse Supreme Court Judgment in the last 100 yrs. Now Big corps will truely own America..

Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power. - Benito Mussolini

I support public finance of elections. That would get the political debates moving in a much more robust direction, third party candidates might actually matter (which is why it will never happen)

@ConservativeHealth You're either being very sarcastic or very telling of the Conservative mindset.

This ruling - if left unchallenged - will doom the United States to become a corporate oligarchy (moreso than it is already).

All hail the Corporatist Party - the unholy spawn of the GOP and the Tea Party shills who - in their near-sighted desire to undo the Obama Presidency at any cost - sold the United States to the highest bidder.

this is the sucky thing about Capitalism, the Corporations are going to (literally) run the show. So get ready for the take over. Hopefully AIG takes over maybe we could all enjoy bonuses.

Looks like Obama has more work to do now. Make laws to block this.

I am beginning to hate this fucking country. I'm a vet, teach at a local junior high school, and am literally -- and quickly -- losing faith in this country. What a crock of bullshit.

Obama lied in his state of the union address... foreign corps cannot donate money in campaigns!

A bright day is upon us. The Supreme Court has expanded democracy by allowing

corporations unlimited election purchasing power. Special interest is the new black.

LOL.. That's why it's so important to protect your financial future.. We have lived in a corporation since the FED was put into place during Wilson's days in office... President Wilson betrayed America.. And no other President will ever try to over turn this because you see what happend to JFK,LINCOLN..Even congress man Louis McFadden was poisened for challenging the FED..

It's been like this for a long time my friend.. People only started to ask questions when the economy directly affected them...
