I see where you get most of your information about this subject. The courts have seen corporations as persons for as long as I can remember. How else do you think individuals an sue them? I think you are listening to uninformed people from the left that really would like to strike down the whole court system other than the 9th Judicial Circuit of the West Coast.

Seriously, I don't think you know any more about this situation than you can get from the left leaning blogs and others of the far left that do want to get rid of our court system.

No one takes apart what Maddow says either. Well, no one except me.

I would be glad to do that but I can't get MSNBC and wouldn't watch her if I could. I just don't like that kind of people who libs think are so smart.

I'm perplexed by the notion that negative reactions to Palin must be a result of fear. What kind of mental gymnastics are necessary to come up with a conclusion like that?
Right now there are 13 pages discussing one statement made by her. If what she says does not matter, I think the thread would have just died. Yes, the Democrats are scared to death of this lady.

I'm Libertarian, not Democratic, so I can't speak for them. I highly doubt though, Democrats are scared to death of this lady. I've heard, Democrats want her to run in the next Presidential election, for obvious reasons

If it was not for McCain picking her as a VP, and FOX making her into something she is not - there would be no threads at all on this "once Governor/Celebrititis".

There are 68 pages on "why do people oppose interracial marriage" - another non issue facing our nation That's the nature of City-data forum - Palin scares no one - but the jokes get better all the time

Harry even went so far as to tell them he didn't need any of them months ago. I guess he has turned to needing to bribe to get at least one vote from them and the two independents which indicates that he has lost his bid to become THE PARTY. Maybe that won't happen.
Soon Harry will be a footnote in history, Obama is already a lame duck after only one year, thank Almighty God, and the experiment is over. Black America got halfway there and white america scrubbed itself of some guilt. Now maybe we can look forward to a for real, genuinely qualified candidate should one arise and maybe it will be a conservative. I wonder how many black liberals would vote for a black conservative just because he is black as did many black conservatives v ote for Obama. Maybe now that the barrier is broken ther will be no guilt or irrational clinging by either side.

What an absolute community organizer you folks wer duped by and maybe next time you will at least get someone that has worked a day in his life and understands some minute details with regard to reality.

The democrats are so afraid of Sarah Palin they would encourage riots to prevent her being elected President.

Can you imagine Palin giving a State Of The Union Address? I shudder to think about how many times she would give that obnoxious wink.

Maybe, but that obnoxious wink is not nearly so obnoxious or comical as that arrogant bakwards head tilt of the messiah. I can imagine he copied that from some sophisticated law professor, maybe Revrund Wright pulling away in his caddy. Maybe it is an optical thing and he's looking down his nose at the teleprompter.
