Today is the anniversary of the Citizens United Supreme Court case. Yet another reason for us to be ever vigilant. Now you may know: I am a HUGE proponent of our court system. I did not support the forces rallying against the court in the aftermath of the 2000 presidential election. I see the courts as one of our best hopes for protection from the abuses of power. The courts are a tool, our tool, but they do need our help.
I have not yet studied the Citizens United enough to understand the decision. Every single time I have delved into a case, I end up respecting the decision of the jurists.
So help me out. If you have an opinion or a summary of the case, I would love to hear it.
