Exactly. They just had a whole lot more power taken from them and handed to the corporations and their phony friends in Washington. Not a peep from the teaparty. How can that be. Do they possibly think this is a good idea? It goes against everything they are talking about.....and still not a peep.
"kaplan - its a ruling on free speech."
Agreed. However, i think it is a terrible ruling.
"you guys act as if the Banksters dont own dems either and the UAW or AFL CIO or SEIU dint throw 100m+ obama'[s way in 08"
I think they are all crooks worthy of prison.
"this works both ways..an insurance company lobbyist held a 5k/plate fundraiser for pelosi last year. is she on your side?"
There isn't a politician in Washington that is on my side or your side for that matter.
"just hope this makes it more transparent as far as who owns who...if not, its no worse than before"
Being a unionist commie, I would have to disagree. Any ruling that goes against the overall best interests of this nation is a bad thing in my opinion. This is definately not in the interest of the nation.
I think those in the tea party and the far right side of the political divide have much in common with people like myself and even the super lefties. In my opinion the status quo is the enemy and 99% of the criminals in our goverment are supporters of the SQ. It sounds crazy but their is much in common between the two sides. It's those in the middle (ie Reps/Dems) who are complete lying crooks. The main problem with this ruling is that the money will corrupt any reform candidates that are put in office. 
You took the words out of my mouth. What's the difference between Corp's advertizing and the Unions throwin' millions at Dem.s????????
It's really VERY SIMPLE, Dem.s are mostly workin' stiffs(I have NO problem with that), but most of their Sen. and Reps are Lawyers. Rep.'s are business people that provide the jobs and their Sen. and Rep.s are BUSINESS MEN.
One cannot exist without the other, and I would rather have a businessman runnin' this country than a Lawyer.

Actually your math skills could be called very simple.
there are 535 seats in Congress. Of those 315 are held by Democrats and 219 are held by Republicans.
123 of the Democrats are lawyers. A percentage of 39 %.
81 of the Republicans are lawyers. A percentage of 37%.
Pretty simple math. Have some facts to back up your blabbering.

So I missed the numbers, you knew what I was driving at. I know you're a Dem. just b/c you have to have something to bitch about.
