Doe V Reed

Mother Jones:

This week, congressional Democrats are crafting legislation to undo the Supreme Court's recent decision in Citizens United, which allowed unlimited corporate spending in elections. At the same time, the legal genius behind that case will be asking the court to take a whack at another long-standing pillar of campaign finance transparency: state disclosure laws. Call it Citizens United, take two.

Please, it's imperative that the average American citizen get all the information on how much money these slime bucket corporations give to the DNC and their hypocritical candidates.

If any possible good could come of this, it would be that those who are still blind to how this country is really run, and by whom, will have their eyes opened. The citizens need to organize to make their voices heard and protect their own rights! That's the only reason we won the Bill of Rights in the first place, we organized and demanded it! It's time to continue the fight, and protect our freedoms!

The Supreme Court's big hand in the continuation of helping to destroy America.

The very court that was set in place to uphold the 'law of the land.'

Go freaking figure........................... Can we suggest and get term limits for the fools who rule over us, who in turn are ruled over by the Council of Nine? Silly me - I think not!! We are "F" and always have been. .
