The Campaign Finance Reform bill guts the First Amendment. Even the authors of the Bill admitted such. Their rationale was essentially "we're corrupt, so we must limit your right to organize and speak out."

Now, Bush and Kerry are suing those groups who are doing exactly that...organizing and criticizing them.

But you see, Kerry is not the President, and Bush is.

Can't escape the fact that the Bush campaign is suing those who are organizing and criticizing them.

If that isn't an attack of the First Amendment, I don't know what is.

CFR has actually opened the political debate exponentially to anyone with a subversive message and millions of dollars to buy mass media resource.

It has actually been an unplanned but hugely empowering force, albeit in a deleterious way to the integrity of our electoral process.

So, as usual, you're completely consumed by the notion that "free speech" only entails the provision of a platform and universal respect for the brilliance your particular juvenile delinquent-level intrigues.

You and the forces of ick sell a product nobody wants to buy, so it has to be Bush and First Amendment corruption.
