“Our founders risked their lives, their liberty and their sacred honor to create a democracy — a government of the many, not a government of the money,” Pelosi said in a statement.

No, they didn't. FUNP.

“I predict that as a result of recent court decisions, there will be scandals involving corrupt public officials and unlimited, anonymous campaign contributions that will force the system to be reformed once again,” McCain said.

Yep, the Keating Five comes to mind.

This will be the reason why Dems lose in Nov 2014 in spite of Obamacare being a roaring success,

7 mill served !

[VerySadAmerican]

If this was a democracy people like Pelosi would have been strung up years ago.

[mountn man]

I hope the Koch brothers double down on Harry Reid.

[CityCenter]

This is why Hobby Lobby will win their case.

[stocksthatgoup]

McCain and Reid on the same side. Glad nothing changed during my nap

Meanwhile Dingy Harry will reap $100 million from the Steyers Brothers who want to kill the Keystone Pipeline and make billions. They own the dirtiest coal plant in Indonesia.

And to think, just yesterday the democrats were in such a good mood after they had deluded themselves into believing Obamacare was a success.....

[Paladin2]

Reid is jealous of Makers, being a Stealer hisself.

Hey Harry - we’ll see you a Soros and raise you a Koch brother.

Thanks SeekAndFind. Demagogic Party ping:

While Democrats publicly criticized the decision, they were far more positive in private. One top Hill Democrat suggested Democrats had a larger number of donors, and they can now go back and ask these supporters for even more money.

The Koch brothers are living rent free in the Rats heads.

Responding to the decision, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) invoked his favorite boogeymen: the Koch brothers.

"Show me the jewelry", Harry.

“Our founders risked their lives, their liberty and their sacred honor to create a democracy — a government of the many, not a government of the money,” Pelosi said in a statement.

Invented history? Two can play that game:

"The Democrats risked their lives, their liberty and their sacred honor to create the Ku Klux Klan — a government of the Southern racists. They never disbanded, but now occupy the big cities, where they keep their black slaves in the chains of crime, drugs and the EBT card."

Now we know what products to support when we shop...

[SoFloFreeper]

If Harry Reid hates it, it must be a good thing.

[Bluestocking]

The Democrats won’t be able to gain much from this ruling, since they don’t follow the current campaign-finance rules anyway.

Liberal Republicans won’t gain much either since most of their money comes from corporations.

But principled Conservatives will benefit because, being principled, they will stick together and share their local contributor lists with other Conservatives in other districts and states. And the Conservative SarahPAC will be able to take in more funds from small donors to compete more fairly with Karl Rove’s RINO organization of big fat-cat contributors.

[Mister Da]

Reid's criticism of the Kochs must be a badge of honor for them.

Reid sounds like a deranged wino.
