Congress Must Confront The Lawless Supreme Court Corporate Personhood Decision
By any fair legal definition, the decision [PDF of full court opinion] yesterday by a gang of 5 right wing judicial outlaws on our Supreme Court yesterday constitutes nothing less than an act of TREASON against the people of the United States.
Corporations are NOT the people, and nothing in the Constitution or any amendment thereto fairly lends itself to any such interpretation. It was only an act of judicial and intellectual fraud yesterday by which any contrary holding could emerge. The Supreme Court 5 have not just made law from the bench, they have fabricated Constitution from the bench. And while other decisions may have nibbled around the edges of this patently dubious proposition, in one gulp this disreputable majority now presumes to swallow the thing whole hog.
