One more thing I don’t understand is why some see “Citizens United” as a conservative position just because some media pundit says so. It’s a corporate position driven by a media that makes mega bucks in the process.

Can we agree that political correctness is intended to take away OUR freedom of speech? It is intended to make us all submissive to the whims of those who divide the USA along lines that they get to define and intentionally create?

The MSM are the principle purveyors and are the PC police. They are the provocateurs. Conservatives typically become the political victims. Make no mistake that most of the “contributions” coming to the politicians end up in the pockets of the MSM. Why then would limitless money going to influence our politicians by bringing bountiful profits to the media be beneficial to conservatives?

So this is why I don’t understand why conservatives would buy into a theory that the Citizens United Decision is manna from heaven. Maybe someone that views this differently could clarify their beliefs.

Seems to me that half of the politicians of either party are married to someone in the media. Keeps the money in the family.
