Note that the older conservative justices wanted to totally reverse an earlier court decision, while the Bush appointees just said that the Wisconsin Right to Life’s ads weren’t covered by the particular provision ruled on. Interesting. I’m getting terribly skeptical in my almost mid-20s age, it seems.

Roberts and Alito came down to the left of KENNEDY, for goodness sakes.

Check post #22. What Roberts and co. did was state that FREE SPEECH was paramount over campaign finance stuff EVERY SINGLE TIME.
That pretty much guts the law when it comes to publishing or broadcasting political information.
I suppose there's still some stuff in there about "reporting" that the court didn't touch.
