Sorry, but not everyone is able to get grants and a free ride to college. My brother is currently $180k, graduated high school with a 4.0 gpa, plus extra curricular activities, but couldnt get a scholarship or any grants. his 1st year roomate was from the same HS, had a 2.9 gpa and got a free ride through 4 years because of a race based scholarship (both to a state school). How is that fair?

Nope its a BS ruling that was politically motivated. Spending money is not free speech, standing on a corner saying that OSP is a complete douche would be free speech, this is not.

For another political scam that is hurting the every day american:

It's their time, it's public property, and if it makes them feel like they're doing something worthwhile, then good on them.
You dont need central command with a list of talking points to make a difference, just look at what happened in the Middle East this year. Or look at the damn Tea Party, theres no central organization at all, just a name but theyre basically running congress now.

I heard Obama personally paid all the protesters to distract us, while he steals our guns and virgins.
