It’s not ALL we can come up with…TRUST us. We’ve got PLENTY on that idiot.
Destroyed? We’ll see.
If that is all the left-wingerscan come up with, look at Bush, he was also ignoring the constitution, you have got a serious problem.
But it doesn’t really matter what I try to convince you of now. You will wake up in November. The Democratic Party will be destroyed. This will be better than November 1994.
What about the Bush Doctrine??
Ah, its okay. I shook my head when Alito was confirmed.
That is so unpresidential. To insult these judges when they are not in a position where they can defend themselves whilst they are sitting right in front of Obama.
Obama is actually saying: “Any part of the consitution I don’t like, I will fight. I do not support the separation of power and the check and balances”.
This shouldn’t surprise anyone though; Obama trying to take make United States of America into United Socialists of America.
He just wants more power, like Hugo Chavez.
**** FOX NEWS ALERT *****
Pres. Obama dominated the Republican caucus in Baltimore and the cowards at FOX News stopped airing it. Fair and Balanced? When are conservatives going to regain their dignity and admit that they are being manipulated? It takes no intellect to be sheep.
New FOX News slogan. – We report (when it fits our directive), you decide.
obama is an asshole. how much money was in his campaign folder? doesn’t he go to mexico to give them progress reports on immigration.
how many houses does john mccain own?
congress and the president are one big fucking joke.
how about corporations such as MSNBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times…
they are in politics every second and trying to tell you how to think!!!
i give a small as fuck what CBS or NBC says about politics as colonel fuckin sanders.
obama is an ass puppet commie clown.
go community organize in kenya cocksucker
They sit there as guilty as hell. Probably because they been paid off and thinking….piss on everyone else.
Isn’t obvious BHO isn’t a leader?
He is still a community organizer and a bad one at that.
Here is to your hoax and change!
Agreed. Most people use terms in which they know not the meaning. Good comment.
The supreme court did fuck us over pretty bad…
Hopefully, we can repeal this hideous act of corporate tyranny….
Fuck Alito.
Alito was one of the Justices who decided corporations should be allowed to get into politics as much as they want and basically buy off our government.
Fuck Alito.
OBAMA: “…last week the Supreme Court reversed a century of law…”
For anyone interested in the TRUTH, just read the text of the actual decision.
The court reversed or altered ONLY TWO previous decisions:
(1) Austin v. Michigan Chamber of Commerce (1990)
(2) McConnell v. FEC (2003)
This rolls us back to… a 1976 precedent! (Buckley v. Valeo).
SINCE WHEN do decisions from 1990 and 2003 equal “a century of law”???
Is Obama stupid, or is he just a BALDFACED LIAR?
I opt for the latter.
Deaths*Lobby
Welcome my friend to the lobby that never mends,
Credit and debt, corporate agendas always met,
Consumer, taxpayer and citizens pay our bills, while the environment suffers the road kill,
Airways, waterways, public health, trash it all to build our wealth,
Welcome my friend to the power and greed which rapes your future, to fulfill our lobbyist needs,
As we ship your jobs overseas, Country bleeds through halfway measures and legislative misdeeds.
Unite the C.H.A.O.S.
The Supreme Court should be pistol whipped for that shit.
Great the GOV hellbent on power, the CORPs hellbent on the GOVs power. What sucks is these two entities become immensely more sophisticated and ever more curious (GOOGLE) about us, while we try to play catchup.
There is no way the Framers of the Constitution could possibly have forseen the corruptible influence that these profit-driven, monolithic corporations would have on society. It is the job of SCOTUS to interpret the Constitution in the context of the age in which we live.
Allowing a corp it’s rights according to the Constitution is not a marrying of state and corp. It’s what our Constitution says must be done under the freedom of speech. Do you know subscribe to the laws of the Constitution?
The scotus has a DUTY to act OBJECTIVELY in their decision making in interpreting the law. They have no such duty or public responsibilty to withhold responce to the Pres, an elected official, publically lying about their character or what the Constitution actually says, which is what he did. It isn’t the President’s interpretation of the constitution that stands as final judge, but the scotus’, it’s their job. BUT IT IS THE PRES JOB to respect and obey the Constitution, he does neither.
And so what if Obama did this? It’s every person of sound mind’s duty, to call out on bullshit, when they see it happen.
The marrying of state and corporation is just wrong and it’s actually what defines fascism – something that conservatives oddly enough associate with Obama. Stupid people.
If I can recall, Reagan has actually attacked the Supreme Court regarding their ruling in Roe v. Wade before.
@timpipe Of the labor union, by the labor union, for the labor union. Same thing.
@substanti8
Well, by what you posted, we are on the same page. I was (in more basic terms) making that point in the excerpt you posted. Corporations are not individuals, ans as such, should not be protected as such under the constitution.
Why were we arguing again?
Of the corporation, by the corporation, for the corporation. Gosh, that has a ring to it!
