The worst of the three rulings to me was the one that will allow "issue ads". The best example of these ads were the ones when Hillary was trying to do health care reform when Bill was President, run by the insurance and pharmaceutical industries. One effect of this ruling is that it treats speech by a corporation or organization EQUAL to speech by individuals, despite the fact that they have no vote. Corporations have a LOT deeper pockets that most individuals, and should be entitled to NO political speech at all. More creeping fascism. A really stinking ruling, that will have the effect of unleashing the professional ad agencies and PR arms of corporations into our politics. Given the stupidity of American voter, this just can't be good.
