Hey, you asshole RepubliCONs who supported Citizens United: DEAL WITH IT!!!

YOU supported Citizens United which allows unlimited amounts of money in campaigns!

YOU supported keeping the identity of creators of campaign ads secret!

YOU supported PACs and Super PACs in politics, their dirty money untouched without regulations!

YOU screamed "free speech" when anyone dare question how money is corrupting government and politics!

Now, it is YOU who must suffer the consequences of Citizens United. That means that when YOU are the subject of negative ads, you have to deal with that consequence!!

So when I see Newt Gingrich, of all people, crying about negative ads from Mitt Romney, doesn't earn you any points. Deal with it!!!

Corporations are not people.

Sign Bernie's petition to for a Constitutional amendment overturning corporate personhood.

WITH disclosure. But we all should remember that the Republicans voted AGAINST disclosure after Citizens United. They didn't even want disclosure laws. Now, Newt is crying about this now when it is biting him in the ads!
