Are you nuts? Which dem voted for Citizens United?

The same ones that voted in the Justices that upheld it.

it's called democracy by plutocracy. Get it?

Those justices who voted FOR Citizens United and their SC confirmation votes:

Kennedy - unanimous vote by Senate Dems
Roberts - only 22 Dems opposed
Alito - 10 Dems voted Yea despite a Dem controlled senate
Scalia - unanimous
Thomas - 9 Dems voted Yea despite a Dem controlled Senate

The Dems are just as responsible as the Reps for voting these five into the SC. That is democracy. That is what YOU keep harping on.
