["This is a historic moment for blogs," Mr. Morrissey said in a telephone interview. "The point of having free speech and a free press is to have people informed. These information bans are self-defeating for free societies. The politicians know, the media knows, but the Canadian voters are left in the dark and that's a backwards way of doing things."]
What scares me about Campaign Finance Reform is the zealots like John McCain and Russ Feingold who push for it will not be content until all originators of government criticism (what they believe are the real source of government corruption) are silenced, regardless of what the Bill of Rights says about freedom of speech.
