Chris, > 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.

What makes a corporation different from a political organization?

MoveOver.org has deep pockets thanks to George Soros, no?
