SCOTUS Needs To Revoke Citizens United Ruling Now



Here is why SCOTUS 
Needs To Revoke Citizens United Ruling Now

1.

We have clear proof that unlimited PAC money dictates the conclusion
and therefore renders democracy inoperative
The Romney victories when he was never the majority choice
The Walker victory
Current awareness of a near 2-1 GOP advantage

2.

The reputation of the Court has declined radically
Clearly US citizens believe the Court has for whatever reason 
moved off course
and cannot be depended on to act in the common interest

3.

Corporations Are Not People
Corporations were invented precisely to exempt them
from liability which all people have
Corporations exude privilege by their very existence
Citizen's United enables unseemly greed 
and is a death knell to democracy

The Theft of the Coming Election


The Theft of the Coming Election is not meant to be 
a come-on headline so you will read on
It is an accurate description of a process
that began with the Republican Primaries
and Citizen's United
Citizens United had its test run when Sheldon Adelson
demonstrated that he could spend tens of millions
turning Mitt Romney into a beggar
and then a slave
We must treat the election at every level 
as being stolen as we speak

ShortFormContent at Blogger: We must avoid David-Goliath complexes[shortformcontent.blogspot.com]

We must avoid David-Goliath complexes


We must avoid David-Goliath complexes
assuming that good will triumph
against the Citizens United giant
We are involved in a guerrilla war
We are a scattered and indistinct aggregation
with a single objective 
which we will win not by violence
but by treating the enemy
truthfully
as criminal thieves
 conspirators against our democracy

Words will be our artillery
Twitter will be our field of battle
No one will be a leader
From Twitter we will fan out 
We will turn the thieves into visible criminals
in the eyes of society

But we know who the front folk are 
Koch  Rove Romney Boehner McConnell
Fight this war by fighting these people
with words

ShortFormContent at Blogger: By their brands we shall know them [shortformcontent.blogspot.com]

By their brands we shall know them



By their brands we shall know them
For example Chevron
I know Chevron by their lies
Their highly skilled and manipulative ads for fracking
This to me is of a piece with PAC advertising
We know who the culprit is in this case
but the noxious effect is not 
diminished by that knowledge
We can assume that PACs are bought 
by similarly noxious enterprises

I have always thought an advertiser
could win favor by spending ad budget
on something useful
For example transporting us for free
By that I mean paying for a vehicle and its operation
A Starbux bus
Then it can tell me whatever it wants 
It is doing something I need
All the rest is useless

stephencrosestephencrose Stephen C. Rose Jun 17, 08:01 PMAs soon as we connect the criminal Citizen's United ruling with those who are seeking to win with it they become accessories. As in Mitt.
