I've already thought of a way to stick a thumb in the eye of the Supreme Court and this law. Run an ad somewhere that says, "Congressman Clank is a bum and should not be reelected." Then, the rest of the ad should consist of screen after screen of thousands of names of supporters of the ad. It should have this final line. "Come and get us."

This is what I'm proposing to do. Looking at the travesty of a law, it appears that print ad won't work, nor internet (yet), so we'll have to come up with a TV or Radio ad (much cheaper) on a station that reaches 50,000 people who is also willing to run the ad.

Let's do this thing. Let them come and arrest us. Someone needs to draw a line and tell Congress, the President, and the SCOTUS, "This far and no further."

And where's the outrage? When is the massive protest!? Why aren't we gathering in Phoenix with a vat of tar and sacks of feathers and a rail to deal appropriately with RINO McCain? No, instead we've got FReepers even on here defending this crap. Defending it!!? Dammit!!

The in-your-face ad cannot be print media, or on the Internet. The ad ban is only against BROADCAST media -- radio or TV. Most people get their political information from TV, and the networks would run the ad FREE as a "controversial issue," so the original ad need only be on one local TV station.

I repeat, for those who missed it, that the TV station MUST run the ad and cannot censor it. (That's in the FEC law, as long as one of the people sponsoring the ad is a federal candidate.) I propose to put my neck on the line and do that -- though others elsewhere in the country could also do the same thing.

And the ad, of course, isn't an in-your-face challenge until 30 days before the appropriate primary, or 60 before the general.
