[Law]

Not that I'm defending this total piece of crap from the court, but the decision only affects groups, not you personally.

That deserved big bold lettering. People's freedom of speech have not been stopped by this bill -- never was and never will be. Like you said, they can write any amount of check they want to buy an add.

I don't recall any individual exception to the BCRA speech ban. And if individuals are exempt, why would Soros donate $10 million to a group he doesn't control rather than produce and pay for his own ads? The same applies to the Hollywood donors to Ickes' media fund.

Anyway, the law applies to the Little People like us, not the Moneyed And Powerful. The corruption in Washington will still be there only now we can no longer hold the politicians accountable since we are forbidden from shining a spotlight onto what they DON'T want us to know about, let alone see.

Don't recall the time limit dates specifically but we aren't within those yet so come that time he may well spend his own money as an individual to run ads if they are legal.... until then why not use organizations?

I would assume that any individual ads would have to disclose who paid for them.

My feeling is that by that time, Soros' name will be associated with scum, so this would backfire BIG-TIME.
