“Mr. Obama, in a statement Thursday, said: “The Supreme Court has given a green light to a new stampede of special interest money in our politics. This ruling gives the special interests and their lobbyists even more power in Washington, while undermining the influence of average Americans who make small contributions to support their preferred candidates.”

Of course more GOVERNMENT POWER is good!

Big lobbyists should have power only when they are leftists pushing "good" policies like Cap and Trade. The first amendment be damned.

I’m sure Obama wouldn’t want his Soros backed front groups and unions to lose their advantage with their soft money, by allowing the business minds of America equal voices in matters that affect their business.
