Brian Greenspun is the liberal editor of the liberal Las Vegas and once again, he shows himself to be quited the uneducated tool of the left.
From Greenspun's editorial:
Votes matter.
No matter how many times we have heard that – or I and others in the media business have said that – the truth remains that our votes do matter. But after all this time, I don’t think the majority of voters get it....
Enough review. What happened?
In the past decade or so, the United States Supreme Court has made a few rulings by 5-4 votes that have fundamentally changed the way the United States does business with its citizens. The Bush v. Gore decision chose a president with a 5-4 vote.
More recently, the Supreme Court ruled that corporations could not be prohibited from spending as much money as they wanted on political messages during elections. The Citizens United case resulted in hundreds of millions of dollars being spent by a handful of billionaires in an effort to sway the voters in races all across the country. The vote in that case? 5-4.
And just the other day, the Supreme Court ruled that reasonable-sounding restrictions on the amount of money individuals could spend during a particular election cycle were, in fact, unreasonable. That will open the floodgates for the rich to have a more outsized voice when it comes to sharing the wealth in political campaigns. The vote in that case? 5-4. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2014/apr/06/it-seems-our-republic-moving-backward/
Greenspun, the uneducated liberal forgets to point another 5-4 vote...
ObamaCare.
And Greenspun is still bringing up the Bush-Gore vote? Get over it, uneducated Greenspun, Buh won, you lost.
Brian Greenspun: Just another uneducated liberal.
