Citizens United Elections Politics

Today’s Politics – Bought And Sold By The Super P.A.C.

The Supreme Court’s dumb decision in the Citizens United v The Federal Election Commission – where the Court ruled that Corporations are people, thus, their free speech must be protected by the first amendment of the United States Constitution – came under attack as Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert showed exactly how foolish this court’s decision really was.

The Supreme Court’s dumb decision in the Citizens United v The Federal Election Commission – where the Court ruled that Corporations are people, thus, their free speech must be protected by the first amendment of the United States Constitution – came under attack as Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert showed exactly how foolish this court’s decision really was.

Claiming that Corporations are people, the court’s decision allowed these Corporations to form ‘SuperPACS.’  These PACS then have the ability to “exercise their free speech” by funneling unlimited amounts of cash into the political system, as long as the candidate these PACS are backing is not directly involved. Call in, the buying of a candidate.

Meanwhile, the people… the real people, the ones the Constitution was written to protect… are drowned out by this unlimited cash of these SuperPACS and their voices, our voices, are silenced.

It takes the political humor of two comedians to show the not-so-funny side of what this Conservative-leaning Court has done.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
