While the NYTimes is in error when it says that bringing a lawsuit is not
lobbying, see NAACP v. Button, it is right on in lobbying the Supreme Court

By the way, all the "corporations are not people" folks should also read
Justice Brennan's opinion in Button. There is nothing new about corporate
speech being protected under the First Amendment. Nor is it only a
conservative idea.
