Supreme Court Dons New Robes™
Thursday, 02/4/2010 - 12:23 pm by Justin Lutz | 6 CommentsGiven the recent Supreme Court decision removing restrictions on corporate and union campaign contributions, the Supreme Court justices in the majority on this decision have unveiled new robes.
Many thanks to George Haywood and Rob Johnson for sending this our way!
This is funny, but if you want to understand the full ramifications of Citizens United, you have to imagine the entire United States Congress covered in these logos. The Chamber of Commerce is spending more on this year’s elections than either of the major political parties.
Stephen Colbert’s “Hail to the Cheese Nacho Cheese Doritos 2008 Presidential Campaign” doesn’t seem so absurd anymore.

I cannot believe this ruling.
I would never believe this could happen in America.

Remember the good old days, when politicians at least used to pretend to be honest?

Where can I get permission to use this image? We are a health advocacy non-profit that accepts no corporate contributions from any organizations that profit from the breast cancer industry. We would love to reuse the image of the supreme court justices in their “new robes.” We need permission ASAP. Please email or call 415.243.9301
