Y'all and I can post on this thread all comments like those on the original thread EXCEPT for mentions of money. I look forward to hearing from you.

I'm certainly not disparaging JimRob, nor FreeRepublic, but it's almost funny that a prior thread on upholding the Constitution as WRITTEN, and not as interpreted by 5 "bigots", is pulled because we were dicussing ways to force the "free speech" issue.

We are told that we must bow in obedience to the Supremes, who in their infinite wisdom, have decreed that speech is not speech. They have already decreed that abortion is legal, that school prayer is illegal, that sodomy is contitutionally protected, that the right to keep and bear arms doesn't mean what is written, that individual privacies are no longer guaranteed. Additionally the court has ruled against commonsense and the people of America in a plethora of other issues that were, and still are, beyond their purview.

Next year we'll probably hear that gay marriage is legal; that pedophilia and bestiality are protected; that God must be struck from our pledges, oaths, currency and goverment buildings. Maybe they'll rule that the federal government can shut down web-sites protesting their unconstitutional actions. I thought this was the United States of America, not some two-bit dictatorship in some third-world

The founders certainly didn't give up when King George demanded they capitulate. They rose up and demanded freedom, and when it was denied, fought for their independence and God-given rights.

Maybe we should refer to SCOTUS as the "Borg" due to the insistence that "resistance is futile - we will be assimilated".

I still think Jim has too much exposure in this.

Please include me in discussions. I retain the right to pull out, as I don't have a lot of funds to spend on a court case. I also want to see just what the exposure is for John and any supporters.

Sorry if that sounds far more cowardly than our founding fathers, but that's where I'm at right now.

Put me on your ping list when we get things definitely nailed down. I'm not sure the scenario you initially described would completely run afoul of the law. We need to make sure that whatever is done be absolutely and unequivocally illegal, or it's a waste of time and effort.

How was the infamous Washington Times ad done during the impeachment days? That was done just before my time here.

The networks will not accept the ad, they will worry about fines, penalties, etc for themselves.

Count me in. While I won't waste my time writing letters to any Republican'ts (my own term), I do believe in civil disobedience! I receently read Francis Schaeffer's "Christian Manifesto" wherein Dr. Schaeffer proposed civil disobedience as the best means to change society. I pray that the movement will catch on!

I also believe in starting a movement to BOLT the GOP and start a new PRINCIPLED party, a party that gives a flip about the U.S. Constitution!

You Will Be Delphi'd if you continue like this on FR!

exmarine, Frankly, the GOP are socialists, so what would we be losing?

SteveH,I agree about GOP being socialists.

Avoiding_Sulla, I think that Statist forces are far too chummy with the Left, and even count on the Leftist bogeymen to help them make gains at the expense of true conservatives

StoneColdGOP, Well said, and quite correct. Correct on all counts.

I'm new to this thread..and haven't read all the posts, so please forgive this if it's a duplicate question.

Are you looking for donations to run the ad during the "blackout period"? If so, wouldn't it be a legal ad since it's paid for by a grass roots organization that isn't incorporated?

Or are you looking to challenge the "you can't mention a candidate by name" provision?

Be kind...I'm trying to sort through this law ;^)

Thanks.

IMPEACHMENT IS FOREVER - HAPPY CLINTON IMPEACHMENT DAY!
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1043404/posts


But in 2004, Hillary will have the CFR Act to keep
America from remembering the truth
about the Clinton Administration!

Thanks to the Campaign Finance Reform Act,
all the Voters will ever remember will be lies, lies
and more Living History lies.

Is Hillary a good planner, or what?

How about a 'recall Bush' campaign? Of course it's never going to happen, but if enough signatures came from the heartland, perhaps this President would think twice about taking the people who voted for him for granted.
