ABC News reports the White House has punched back at the Chief Justice:

SNIP

Asked for comment, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said, "What is troubling is that this decision opened the floodgates for corporations and special interests to pour money into elections – drowning out the voices of average Americans."

Gibbs continued, saying, "the President has long been committed to reducing the undue influence of special interests and their lobbyists over government. That is why he spoke out to condemn the decision and is working with Congress on a legislative response.”

SNIP

Good for Justice Roberts!

The totally classless demagogue, Obama, has
to send out his crass buttboy to counter
the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme
Court !!

The Founders weep.

The debasement of the decorum of the Office by
this crew is historic.

"What is troubling is that this decision opened the floodgates for corporations and special interests to pour money into elections" [Robert Gibbs]

Certainly our esteemed President would never let contributions and special interests influence HIM. That's why he's pushing for major tort reform in his health care proposal. Oh, wait . . .

Zero lies and Gibbs swears to it. But unfortunately for them, Americans are not that stupid, we see through them both, and pelosi and reid too.

"The voices of average Americans" apparently only count on campaign finance (an issue almost no one cares about) but not on health care.

Troubling that the Constitution was UPHELD? Sounds about right for the Marxist-in-Charge and his White House Flunkies...
