Once again, you conveniently leave out the key part of the comment in question: the source of the funding.

Citizens United wasn't about speech. It was about unlimited anonymous money flooding our elections.

Nothing is wrong with criticizing a politician. That's obvious. But thanks for the clumsy obfuscation attempt.
