This ruling will allow literally billions of foreign dollars to flow into our campaigns. How are we a free country any more when Saudi Arabia can walk in and tell a congressman, "if you vote for this bill, we're going to give your opponent a 500 million dollar 'campaign contribution' "? How exactly ?


Isn't that about how much they "contributed" to Obamas campaign?
