The question is why are the liberals who love free speech are not celebarating
You also need to ask why most conservatives are not celebrating. Because the liberals and conservatives and everyone else with half a brain in their head can see the probems this will create. You belong to a small group of people who actually think this is a good thing.

You must be liberal. Anyone who doesn't agree with you only has half a brain.

Don't play into games. True "Conservatives" will wait.

Correct....all thinking people understand what a disaster this is and the fallacy in equating corporations to individual citizens.
We need to go much further than this law did to end corporate influence in politics.

No, I said anyone with half a brain can see the problems. If you don't see them, then you have LESS than half. I am independent, and as you can see most conservatives don't like this ruling either.
I predict that by 2012 there will only be about a dozen lobbyists still working in the US. From now on each large corp can just BUY rather than rent their wh**es. We'll have a "distinguished gentleman" from Chevron, one from Exxon, one from "Big Auto", one from coal producers, one from big pharma, one from the AMA, one from electric utilities.
Oh, wait, we pretty much already have that. Only in the future it will be MUCH WORSE.
This is not a partisan issue. It is a democracy issue. Wake up!
Free speech is crucial to a democracy, and the poorly written law, that was just slapped down, encroached upon free speech. Want some campaign finance reform? Then write a better law.
Well now the lefties are admiting the unions are big money!
what unions are able to contribute is what compared to the fortune 1000.
Geee in one half of a day of so called profits by ten oil company's is what a union can afford to put in in 1 years or so. My god the union spending is less than the bonuses of many CEOs....... again this is just the oil companies vs ALL union money, not including defense contractors, medical, pharma, insurance, financial banking...
During that period, the top 10 major public oil companies have sold some $1.5 trillion worth of crude, pocketing profits of more than $125 billion.
