Today's lead editorial in The Wall Street Journal has encouraging word that
"a unanimous Supreme Court ordered a lower court to reexamine a key challenge to the McCain-Feingold campaign restrictions. . . . this could be a first step toward rolling back a 'reform' that has served little purpose other than to muzzle the political speech of Americans."
Possibly the substitution of Alito for O'Connor will mean that this McCain-Feingold travesty will finally be brought to book. McCain-Feingold makes the owner and editor of an establishment journalism outlet explicitly superior in rights to the rest of us, even though the difference in principle between us is that I have not started a newspaper yet.

McCain-Feingold should never have been passed, never have ben signed, never have been approved by the court.

I call it "Loopholes Are For Me Not You". May McCain-Feingold fade into the dustbin of history along with its namesakes.
