They're not destroying small businesses! Only their rest rooms…

One best way to deal with all the chaff CU will throw in the air this fall:

Simplify by sticking with the familiar, the tried-and-true. Two phrases only:
STAY THE COURSE
REELECT THE PRESIDENT
There should be only one bumper sticker for Obama supporters:
REELECT THE PRESIDENT 2012
Drum it, over and over and over again. This streetfighter tells you it's the only remedy that will have any effect at all.
All else, all the stamping out brush fires, is confusion–this wicked new GOP's stock in trade and chosen weapon.

Damn, man; apparently the "Occupy Wall-nuts" feel that blocking traffic, smashing windows and destroying small businesses is "Free Speech"; so why can't others contribute money for campaign ads?

I propose we file a lawsuit against the Federal government claiming a violation of our civil rights. Citizens United, by stating that money is the equivalent of speech, violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment because it automatically grants more rights to people with more money and discriminates against the middle class and poor.
It ironically personifies the line from Orwell's Animal Farm ."All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others." It is ironic, of course, because that work was a criticism of Soviet style communism. And yet here we are.
If any of you out there are more familiar with laws and the legal system, please provide feedback on how plausible this idea is.
