forsythWell, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday that "companies have a free-speech right to spend as much as they wish to persuade voters to elect or defeat candidates for Congress and the White House."
Which is, of course, sheerest bullshit, because a corporation is not a person, and has no "free speech rights". Nice to know bribery's legal now, though. This is a hell of a lot more important than some nut winning an election in Massachusetts. And bodes much much worse for our country.
The Worst Presidency Ever is a gift that just keeps on giving.
