Guess he considers SEIU and Acorn to be of the people.
I just know people I don’t trust and who are apparently trying to destroy this country want this control. So lack of it must be a good thing for freedom.
What useless, communist puke and Nazi Pelosi Lap-poodle!
As I have said before...if you want to make an easy decision about legislation and whether is is good or bad for this country, look at the people who support it, or those who cry the loudest when it is struck down.
It is no coincidence the ones making noise are all Rats. Obama. Pelosi. Kerry. Frank. Schumer.
This guy is one more.
Unless those special interests happen to be unions, then we'll look the other way while they fill democrat campaign coffers.
Do they really think we are stupid enough to get rid of the 1st Ammendment?
This will be the meme when they get their hats handed to them in November.
“Big business bought the election for the Repubs.”
Bank on it.
Paul Hodes is down 14% against an unnamed (R). LMAO.
Obviously one who offers such a law should turn down all out of state money, or any funds given him by other Senators or Representatives. He should turn down any PAC funds from out of state Pacs, and run only on the funds given him by his own constituents.
Until he does that he is a hyprcrit.
And a lying, conniving SOB.
FUPH!
LLS
Dang! A Democrat I can agree with!!
No, not for the action, for the means. I’ll fight this amendment tooth and nail should it get far enough to fight, but at least it’s not a sneaky back-door lawyered up theft of rights.
This is the way it is supposed to be done. If you wish to change the Constitution, have the ‘nards to stand up and call for that change. Don’t go to court in the dark of night and under cover of good intention to squeeze the boundaries of freedom to the vanishing point.
Hodes will be free to work on this full time when he is back in the civil sector in 2011.
The left-wing know that they have powerful support from foreign interests with “groups of people” like ACORN, International A.N.S.W.E.R. , Moveon.org, etc… All of these groups were out in force using foreign money directly to influence American policy and our elections. Yet that does not bother the hypocrites on the left who want to suppress their boogey man (corporations) and in spreading their hate speech against the private sector.
The left-wing do not believe in EQUAL rights for ALL. The left-wing want to use the Courts to suppress people’s rights and to not give them an equal right to representation on issues such as when life begins , or on how society deals with issues of sexuality in public. The left-wing want to drive all religious expression behind closed doors and outlaw religion in the public square.
Let Hode “go through the motions”.
The supremes will simply declare his constitutional ammendment unconstitutional...
Living in Massachusetts, I always used to love having a Republican neighbor to the north. When Massachusetts passes some new tax (look, there’s another one) you could always run across the state line to avoid it.
Now the Liberal Disease has apparently afflicted the good people of New Hampshire. Sad. They used to be so conservative and sensible.
New Hampshire should form its own in-state Border Patrol and close the state line.
Live Free Or ... oops ... never mind.
When we say “Free Speech”, we don’t mean for you!
There can be one and only one reason they are going ballistic over this ruling and that is because it is a road block in their attempt to become an oligarchy.
U.S. Rep. Paul Hodes, D-N.H., said yesterday he intends to introduce a proposed constitutional amendment to overturn a controversial U.S. Supreme Court decision last week that removed corporate and other special interest campaign spending limits. ... The National Republican Senatorial Committee called Hodes' plan hypocritical.
Hypocritical or not, at least he *seems to understand* the Constitution(1). That's something we can't say about his party leadership, or that squatter whose currently occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
(1) though having to 'consult with constitutional scholars' makes me chuckle. The 1st Amendment seems pretty clear to me.
