I get the feeling this legislation will have a reverse effect; does it apply to Unions?

Are you watching this BS from Dodd on Cspan1

He says his definition of bipartisan is not when democrats agree with republicans .. but when republicans agree and vote with democrats

LOL...yes, and that is exactly true...and we need for Pres. Bush and the GOP in the Congress to realize that once and for all...so they never, ever try to be bi-partisan again.

He says they don't have time to be cynical....but they sure have time to tell everyone how AWFUL America is, and our lives are.

Here is another McCain/Feingold bill:

S. 478. A bill to amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to replace the Federal Election Commission with Federal Election Administration, and for other purposes; to the Committee on Rules and Administration.

Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, I am pleased to be joined by my good friend and colleague from Wisconsin, Senator Feingold in once again introducing legislation to replace the Federal Election Commission (FEC) with the Federal Election Administration (FEA). The FEA would serve as an independent body to enforce Federal campaign laws--something the FEC has been unable, and often unwilling, to do.

This legislation would terminate the FEC and establish a new regulatory entity. Using a new organizational structure and administrative law judges, we hope to avoid the routine partisan deadlocks that are now so prevalent at the FEC.

This bill would authorize the new FEA to impose civil penalties, issue cease and desist orders, report apparent criminal violations to the appropriate law enforcement authorities, and conduct audits and field examinations of campaign committees. Finally, this bill would direct the Comptroller General to examine and report to Congress on the enforcement of the criminal provisions of the Federal campaign finance laws.

He said that if we have energy independence we won't have to send our troops over "there" to fight.

Hmmmmmmmm...I don't think the Islamic Terrorists care if we use oil or wind power, do you?

He mentioned a family going bankrupt because they didn't have health insurance.

I happen to KNOW that hospitals and doctors work with patients..and there is NO reason for medical bills to cause someone to go bankrupt.

So...he is misleading in his rhetoric, of course.
