I was going to reply how SCOTUS leveled the playing field between corp and union,

Actually, the law they overturned prohibited direct spending by both corporations and unions.

CALLING Captain OBVIOUS!!!!!

But that NEVER STOPPED those ****ing UNIONS (which in my state I have to belong to 3 of the effing things in order to work in my field.)

“Actually, the law they overturned prohibited direct spending by both corporations and unions.”

You’re right, but you are going against the class warfare rants spurred by Rush L.’s show saying the opposite, special privileges for unions, etc. All false.

It will work out like the Soros Amendment in the McCain bill. The Unions will be ever more empowered, the fantasized Corporate empowerment will not appear as much.

I think the Republican establishment understood this. In the past they tooted their horns for money speech, this time around silence.

[ilgipper]

then why have the unions been allowed to run ads in past elections? Shouldn’t this have been stopped by the FEC or court order?
