Judge Strikes Ban on Corporate Political Contributions

http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/politics/2011/June/Judge-Strikes-Ban-on-Corporate-Political-Contributions-/

A federal judge has ruled that businesses can give money directly to political candidates.

The Obama administration had asked U.S. District Judge James Cacheris to reconsider his ruling after he struck down the ban on those contributions two weeks ago.

Cacheris upheld his ruling Thursday, tossing out part of an indictment against two people charged with illegally reimbursing donors to Hillary Clinton's 2006 Senate and 2008 presidential campaigns.

Cacheris said that under the Supreme Court's landmark Citizens United decision last year, corporations have the right to give to federal candidates.

But isn't this means that Busineses can just 'buy' politicians - like they was prostitutes or somethings like this?

Is open to corruptings this idea, no?
I think yes.

That's the same argument the liberals use to try to take away our guns.

Just because someone else might use it the wrong way doesn't mean you can just attack my freedoms and prevent me from giving my money to whomever I want.

Are you a liberal?

Well, if having the good sense to realize that laws like that are insane means I'm a liberal, then label me however you like. That law is insane. Citizens United my demon-free rear.

Look, gun laws don't work. In the least restrictive states, they have the lowest crime rates and in Washington, D.C. where it's illegal to own a gun the crime rate is rampant.

You can't refute facts. But I suppose you aren't used to dealing with facts, are you?

Why do you need guns?

I said nothing about guns. We were discussing the buying of politicians. I agree with you about weapons moratoriums. Or moratoriums of any type. They don't work. The only thing gun control laws can do is to turn law abiding gun owners into criminals, and empower the gun owners who are not law abiding. Gun control is among the most worthless ideas ever conceived by our law makers, and is almost as big a waste of tax dollars as the war on drugs! Which also, by the way, won't work... like any other moratorium.

That's a rather sweeping thought, sweet sister.

Had you kept it confined to all those evil demoncrats, then I would have agreed.

However, I defy anyone to show evidence of any Godly Republican(c) being bought. It just doesn't happen.

Just think of the electorate. It's a fact that evangelical Christians vote almost exclusively Republican, and that atheists and evilutionists tend to vote for Democrats. People vote for the kind of people they want in office. Therefore, it stands to reason that Republicans are honest, hard-working, Christian people and Democrats are (like the people who vote for them) sneaky, conniving, dishonest, and deceitful liars.
