Reminiscent of the 2000 case Bush v. Gore, the U.S. Supreme Court today decided that they quite preferred Republican rule... In a 5-4 decision, with all five justices in majority being appointed by Republican presidents, the court cleared the way for unlimited spending by corpoarte Fat Cats in campaigns...
The Righties here and elsewhere will argue that this is about free speech and the constitutionality of limiting corpoartions from enjoying the same rights as individuals... I personally could accept this argument if those politicans who will now be bullied into voting ***exactly*** the way Boss Hog wants them to vote had orgainizations or individuals who were granted "equal time" but that isn't the way the Republican packed FCC has rigged the game... And make no bones about it, the game is now fully rigged... Makes TV wrestling look real...
So, ya'll... 2010 is now going to be a bloodbath for Dems and those who do get re-elected will do so only if they promise to sing the company fight song...
What was left of democrarcy has now been dropped into the shreader...
