Corporations Aren't People Quote of the Day

From a Philadelphia Daily News editorial, commenting on the Supreme Court's upholding of the vile Citizens United decision permitting unlimited corporate money in politics:
"We'll believe a corporation is a person when:

Arizona deports one.

Texas executes one.

Massachusetts marries two of them.

The U.S. government issues one a Social Security number.

The CIA extradites one to Guantanamo.

One sacrifices its life in military service."
It looks like they're channeling our favorite Senate candidate, Elizabeth Warren.
