Will the Roberts Court Bend Over Again to Corporate Interests?

By       (Page 1 of 4 pages)   No comments
Message dick overfield

Yet again, with their obsequious servility to the predatory agenda of corporate elites, conservative justices on the Supreme Court are about to demonstrate the appalling dimensions of their contempt for the best interests of the American people .

We already know what runs our government: money.

We already know what runs both the Democratic & Republican parties: money.

We already know who gets to call the shots about what our government does & does not do: those with the most money.

We already know what Republicans want: no restraints on the power that comes with lots of money & the rights of those who have it.

We know that Republicans will go to any lengths bar nothing to protect the rights & privileges of those with lots of money & that they are hypersensitive about the rights & privileges of those who are willing to give a bit of it to Republicans.

We already know that conservatives believe it's acceptable to commit crimes, lie to Congress & indiscriminately violate the U.S. Constitution to achieve their ends.

We know that Republicans are willing to divert incomprehensible amounts of public funds into the hands of Republicans & that they are particularly enthusiastic looters when the money they are spending is dedicated to the destruction of the American government.
