Tarzan?

Well I have swung from a few vines from time to time.

But just where does the CFR bill take away our rights to Free Speech? It merey places regulations on elections primarily because things were being abused. Our full Constitutional right to Free Speech is still in tact. You are not only not making sence, you exaggerate as well.

Limiting IS taking away. As in freedom?

Are you serious? Get a life.

It says I can't combine some cash with my friends and run an ad supporting Pres. Bush in the newspaper within 30 days of an election.

But I guess idiots say that's okay if they don't like freedom of speech.

You're kidding, right?

It is now unlawful for a person or a group of people to take out an ad in the print or broadcast media within 30 or 60 days of a federal election that advocates for a particular candidate or against another. How does that strike you?

If political speech can be "regulated", then so can any other form of speech.

There is no exagerration on my part whatsoever. This law is a clear violation of the First Amendment, and all three branches of government have colluded to deny us one of our most fundamental rights.
