RBG was right, Citizens United was one of the worst decisions the SCOTUS ever made. Maybe soon it can be reversed, just as Roe V. Wade was reversed.

We the people would have to make it happen, or maybe an asteroid hits the current court.

Or a bomb in the men's room, the next time they're "consulting."

We could get it through Congress if we flipped the house and senate, but I donтАЩt think Rick Scott will be any less ruinous than Mitch McConnell was as senate minority of majority leader.

I agree with you both. ScottтАЩs as rotten as they come and made a fortune by cheating the government.

McConnell has shown flickers of conscience, though he does not act on them.

I was sick when Citizens United happened. I still donтАЩt see how the title has anything to do with the reality. It should be called тАЬEyes Wide Shut.тАЭ Of course that can be said for a thousand other coalition names that stand for the opposite of what they really representтАж mainly created by the conservative leaning.
