Obama calls this 'devastating'... The majority opinion by Justice Anthony Kennedy made a vigorous argument for the right of the public to be exposed to a multitude of ideas and against the ability of government to limit political speech. He is so far into his own agenda he can't see right from wrong!! This is what Obama and the Dems are REALLY afraid of… Obama also said the decision will make it harder to enact financial, tax, health care and energy changes. Said Van Hollen: "At a time when Americans are more worried than ever that special interests are running the show, this will further undermine their confidence in our democracy."

"We don't need to give any more voice to the powerful interests that already drown out the voices of everyday Americans," Obama said Saturday, devoting his weekly radio and Internet address to the topic. "And we don't intend to." The Obama-Meister sure has a talent for espousing the exact opposite of what he does. His entire administration and 80%+ of what he has done since Day 1 in office has been to "drown out the voices of everyday Americans" in favor of the "powerful interests" who elected him and Dems in general. What a piece of work that guy is!
