Maybe I need some education - does the act effect more than political advertising?

Um...yeah. It even affects people being able to express their own opinions on their own blogs or on Web forums such as here on the FR.

I'm not saying you are wrong but I read every word of the thing last night and don't see how it effects unpaid speech. I realize that at least one county judge has ruled that way but that appears to be judicial abuse rather than reading the law as written.

Do you know what part of the bill people believe will prevent unpaid political statements by people not affiliated with a campaign on forums?

If the bill really does that then, of course, it will be a huge issue - big enough to prevent McCain from getting the nomination, I would think.
