That was one of the most disgusting decisions the Supreme Court (in particular the right wing Justices of course) has made. I would hope if a democrat stays in the oval office they will appoint the next justices and get that corrupt decision overturned! Ole Williard Romney not only got caught on video spouting about 47 %, he was also caught saying the bullspit that is " CORPORATIONS ARE PEOPLE MY FRIEND" WRONG nor is SPEECH MONEY! Citizens United has got to go period!
