The lie that the court reversed a century of law and allowed foriegn corps to influence US elections.
 
Sigh.

More and more, day by day, you prove yourself to be a partisan hack.

He didn't lie.

The laws regarding political expenditures by foreign "entities" remain intact.


Federal Election Campaign Laws
§ 441e. Contributions and donations by foreign nationals
1
(a) Prohibition. It shall be unlawful for—
(1) a foreign national, directly or indirectly, to make—
(A) a contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a Federal, State, or local election;
(B) a contribution or donation to a committee of a political party; or
(C) an expenditure, independent expenditure, or disbursement for an electioneering communication (within the meaning of section 304(f)(3)) (2 U.S.C. § 434(f)(3)); or
(2) a person to solicit, accept, or receive a contribution or donation described in subparagraph (A) or (B) of paragraph (1) from a foreign national.
(b) As used in this section, the term "foreign national" means—
(1) a foreign principal, as such term is defined by section 611(b) of title 22,2 except that the term "foreign national" shall not include any individual who is a citizen of the United States; or
(2) an individual who is not a citizen of the United States or a national of the United States (as defined in section 101(a)(22) of the Immigration and Nationality Act)3 and who is not lawfully admitted for permanent residence, as defined by section 1101(a)(20) of title 8.1

1Section 303 of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (BCRA), Pub. L. No. 107-155, amended section 441e by revising the title of the section and the wording of subsection (a).

222 U.S.C. § 611(b) provides:
"(b) The term "foreign principal" includes—
(1)
a government of a foreign country and a foreign political party;
(2)
a person outside of the United States, unless it is established that such person is an individual and a citizen of and domiciled within the United States, or that such person is not an individual and is organized under or created by the laws of the United States or of any State or other place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and has its principal place of business within the United States; and
(3)
a partnership, association, corporation, organization, or other combination of persons organized under the laws of or having its principal place of business in a foreign country."

3Section 317 of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (BCRA), Pub. L. No. 107-155, amended section 441e(b)(2) to insert a cross reference to the Immigration and Nationality Act. This amendment is effective as of November 6, 2002.

Daily Kos: Just maybe, the Supreme Court ruling is a good thing

So when Obama said, "The Supreme Court reversed a century of law to open the floodgates for special interests -- including foreign companies -- to spend without limit in our elections. Well I don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interests, and worse, by foreign entities," he either lied or was mindlessly reading words from the teleprompter with no understanding of the issue. Given his past speech and actions, either explanation is plausible.

You shouldn't say that about yourself my dear.

BTW, you can't be a 'partisan hack' when you lotahe both sides.

Maybe someday you will figure that out.
 
The lie that the court reversed a century of law and allowed foriegn corps to influence US elections.

Appendix 4: Brief History

The lie is all yours by denying the fact that the court reversed a century of law and allowed foriegn corps to influence US elections.

Why does the right feel the need to constantly lie?

The lie remains Barry's, and your licking his bung hole won't change that.

"

Yep. So all anybody needs to get around this is an American charter of incorporation and an office or PO Box in an American State or territory. Anybody from anywhere can do it with a form off the internet and a couple hundred bucks in fees.

It sure would be nice if life were that simple though, wouldn't it?

It’s unclear whether the court’s opinion will lead to allowing foreign-based corporations to buy campaign ads and engage in other electioneering activities. There is still a law barring foreign corporations from spending money in connection with U.S. elections (see 2 U.S.C. 441e(b)(3)), and that’s a matter likely to be litigated further. The court’s most recent decision explicitly didn’t deal with that question.Obama is very careful with his choice of words - Obama couched his claim as something "I believe," making it a statement of opinion and not of fact.

The Obama was very careful with his words, as usual. We all know what he meant and what he was implying, but he can hide behind the qualifier "I believe". Much as Clinton hid behind "what is the meaning of is" and " are we ever really alone" statements he made. The Obama is free to "believe" what ever he chooses....right? :lol:

Yes, the one where he mandated that newborn babies could be stuck in a room and left to die.

Indeed, some people want to believe they are listening to Professor Obama, but nearly every time he opens his mouth all we get is more Whiplash Barry.
