In response to:
citizens united wanted to run an advertisement. federal elections sid they couldnt.

anyone care to name names? CAN anyone name names? are they ELECTED? appointed? or just chosen from the partry in control of congress at te time?
who is federal electuions to say who can and who cant run an ADVERTISEMENT? what about all the negative advertisements against hillary's opponents? why were those allowed?
Remember when President Obama slammed the Supreme Court in front of the world during his 2010 State of the Union address for their 2009 Citizens United ruling? Well it looks like Sen. John McCain would have done the same. Yesterday on Meet the Press, McCain called the Supreme Court "uninformed, arrogant and naive" while warning of political "scandals" as a result of the ruling.
MSNBC also used the Citizens United ruling as a punching bag after they lost the Wisconsin recall election to weeks ago.
I'm...
Explain to me how MSNBC or the NYT can publish politically slanted info all day long, but Citizens United or the NRA can't?
Perhaps it would be better if we had a seiu sticker or a uaw sticker???
