Citizens United will be as infamous as Plessy vs. Ferguson, Dredd Scott,
Bush vs. Gore, and Kelo vs New London as the top tier of really really bad SCOTUS decisions.

It didn't take long for both Roberts and Alito to reveal themselves. Boy wonder Roberts will have a legacy, but ot perhaps the one he was after - The Supreme Court Chief Justice Who Killed Democracy.

2. Too bad Ken Lay didn't live to see this .. it's a made-for-Enron ruling
God knows, Lay and Enron bought a big piece of this action by propping up Junior Bu$h (Bu$h, the gift that keeps on giving).
