Recently I wrote a post,
Being for Campaign Reform, which addressed the Supreme Court's hearing of the possible expansion of the role of corporations in our election process. But Steve Colbert does a much better job than I. Check him out. It's funny and, oooh, so very relevant. "Let Freedom Ka-Ching."
It's amazing that the Supreme Court, the highest court in the land, would even hear such a case. Last week the Court heard Attorney Theodore Olsen argue that "corporations are persons entitled to protection under the first amendment." Now, do we need to be a Supreme Court justice to see the ridiculousness of hearing this case? Corporations must not be allowed to donate to campaigns without restrictions. Period.

"Corporations are people..." Oh, puuuleeeeze?! What a ridiculous and total waste of the Court's time. I love Steve Colbert and his take on it. He's a hoot. Great post! Blessings!
Didn't Colbert really break it down so simply, Marion? Funny too! How foolish of the Court to hear such a case! I agree it's "ridiculous and a total waste of the Court's time."
That would be an abuse of the Supreme Court if they waste their time on such a case. Colbert is so often right on target and always hilarious. Thanks for the clip, Judith. Hope you have a good night!
I agree with you, Kelly. I have enjoyed reading your comments tonight. Thanks for passing through and I also hope that you have a restful night. You deserve it, dear friend.
