Sorry ‘O’ SCOTUS ruled on Constitutionality which is their job; You Lose!
Go Chief Justice Roberts!!
Yet once again, Obama thinks he has the power to control privately owned, taxpaying corporations.
The problem Bambi and his minions face is: how to ALLOW “media corporations” to continue to shill for him, while somehow restricting OTHER corporations.
Very, very difficult to do.
Bambi and the ‘Rats are screwed by free speech, and they know it.
This is essentially nibbling around the edges. They can’t do more, because the ruling is clear.
Also, some of it can come back to bite the Democrats. For example, if you require a shareholder vote before airing adds about a candidate, you can justify letting union members get the same vote before their union (in which they are the shareholders) supports a candidate. That could lead to some unpleasant surprises for Democrat candidates...
“Don’t make me go all Andy Jackson on your ass.”
What part of SHALL NOT INFRINGE does he not get?!?
new title = White House hopes to blunt Free Speach
restrict the ability of companies with big government contracts to air such ads
This might possibly be the only constitutional restriction
in his wish list and at that it would require prior consent.
Warning, I am not a constitutional lawyer, but I have
read the constitution.
Mr. Obama, meet my friend, Phil E. Buster.
Unions don’t “vote” on handing over part of their union dues to the candidate of the union boss’s choice. Those funds should be made “voluntary.”
They think they rollback a SCOTUS decision that applies strict scrutiny, these are the smartest people in the room? I guess to quote Sun Tzu, “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake”. Plus SCOTUS gets to decide Gura vs Chicago this session too, imagine what could have if Heller is majorly reaffirmed and get strict scrutiny too.
Yeah sure! Right after they do the same thing for the unions!
bowow is a complete asshole.....totally unfit to rule...
