FIRST
AMENDMENT RIGHTS ARE FOR DEMOCRATS...NOT YOU
OTHER FOOLS !!!…
I’m so glad the president and his minions
have spoken. It gives me such a warm and
fuzzy feeling to know they are looking after
my best interests. In view of the recent
Supreme Court decision allowing corporations
to finance political campaigns the Democrats
have once again proven their unwavering
bias.
Yesterday the president opined that … ‘We
don’t need to give any more voice to the
powerful interests that already drown out
the voices of everyday Americans.” In other
words, he was going to make certain that new
pieces of legislation would be introduced in
the coming weeks that would blunt the impact
of the courts ruling. Doesn’t this lead us
to a sort of Catch 22 situation? A law suit
forces the court to rule …the court
rules..and a new piece of legislation is
proposed which might get passed which will
result in another law suit resulting in
another ruling resulting in another piece of
legislation? How many can be attempted
before there is a time out? Perhaps the
question should be…is there ever a time out?
Another brilliant suggestion was voiced in
this manner: Rep. Donna Edwards, D-Md., went
even further. She suggested a constitutional
amendment to strip a corporation’s
“personhood” for First Amendment purposes.
What a can of worms this would open up,
obviously Ms. Edwards has no idea about the
purpose and concept of a corporate entity. I
guess she was absent from law school the day
this was discussed.
Several legal scholars have voiced their
concerns that trying to repeal this decision
or to introduce legislation to regulate it
once more places restrictions on the first
amendment right of free speech. Of course,
the current administration and its lockstep
followers see it as an opportunity for big
business to have more clout (read vote
getting possibilities) in upcoming
elections. I’m certain that the fact that
most big businesses, as well as businesses
in general, are owned and controlled by
Republicans may have played into this
analysis of the courts ruling. This follows
the ‘fair play’ philosophy of the Democrats
who believe if it is good for someone other
than themselves it must be bad and done away
with at all possible costs.
I find the words of the president to be
especially curious when he says that he is
concerned that the … ‘powerful interests may
drown out the voices of everyday Americans.’
I may be old and more forgetful than perhaps
twenty years ago, but didn’t the President
of United States…a few weeks ago…jump on
board of a sweet heart deal for the labor
unions of this country in regards to
taxation on healthcare? Maybe I missed
something, but aren’t labor unions a
‘special interest’ group or are they exempt
from criticism and inspection like …Acorn?
As I recall, the IRS and the FBI were going
to actively investigate the books at Acorn,
but I haven’t heard anything recently about
their progress. I looked up the
words…’special interests’ in the dictionary
and a picture of the logo for Acorn popped
up….but what do I know…I’m just a citizen.
No, it seems to me that if something seems
ok and for the benefit of those on the left,
then heaven help anyone who might be looking
to see if it is fair for all of us. They
seem to labor under the impression that
whatever is good for them is good for the
rest of us as well. No one on our side
should be expressing any views or comments
contrary to those coming out of the beltway
and to do so would be tantamount to being a
traitor. I’m surprised we haven’t heard some
left wing nut case to call for the
reinstatement of the alien and sedition act.
There seems to be no shortage of democratic
zombies out there who would do any and
everything possible to garner some form of
adoration and largesse from the benevolent
chief of state.
On second thought, give ‘em time…they’ll
figure out a way to shovel it onto the pile
