Could affect bloggers and maybe some radio people too. Can you think of some radio personalities who make more than $25K a year and tell their listeners to call politicians?

It might have - but Section 220 was removed from the Senate bill today in a 55-43 vote before the rest of the ethics bill passed the Senate. All 43 Senators who voted to keep the provision were Democrats.

Free speech and the right to petition the government dodged a bullet today. Next up - making sure Pelosi's House bill doesn't include any similar provision and/or that the grassroots lobbying "reform" doesn't rear its ugly head in a conference committee hashing out any House-Senate differences.

The US Senate wants the internet and talk radio controlled or dead. The senate is far more dangerous than al Queda.

Grassroots Lobbying "Reform" Bill Fails in Senate

[My2Cents]

Republican/conservative lobbyists/bloggers = "corruption" (in the view of the Democrats)

Hooray for the ACLU on this one.

OMG. Did I really say that?

I am becoming more and more "disillusioned" with our elected leaders...When will Dems suspend the right to vote for another party other than their own?
