Exactly. You criticize a politician two months before an election and you go to jail. Which means practically anytime in the next year. This decision is the same league as Dred Scott, Roe V Wade And Lawrence V Texas. Another unconstitutional atrocity birthed by the SCOTUS Supremes.

I agree with you 100% This nation is quickly devolving. Pres. Bush should never have signed this law.

Incumbent protection is what drives legislation now. Hence the gerrymandered House districts. Hence the Supreme Court decision against term limits. Hence this 60-day limit and the court decision upholding it.

We're being ruled by a two-party oligarchy of career politicians whose supreme goal is protecting their own careers. If a piece of legislation that favors that end violates the Constitution, hey, who cares?

This decision puts CFR in the same league as the Sedition Act which made it a crime of treason to criticize the government in the press.
