Saw this in NY Thursday evening. John Fund, Robert Novak, Frank Gaffney, Tony Blankley, Bay Buchanan, Dick Morris, and others also in it. Ann was terrific. It’s all the stuff we’ve been screaming about on FR, but in movie form. Plus it goes into the campaign, with clips from Obama and Edwards. You can’t miss it.

McCain/Feingold is prohibiting this documentary from being advertised in the MSM. (McCain is a close Friend of Hillary, by the way)

It's forbidden by McCain-Feingold. Cfm; Wikipedia:

As noted in McConnell v. FEC, a United States Supreme Court ruling on the BCRA, the Act was designed to address two issues:

The increased role of soft money in campaign financing, by prohibiting national political party committees from raising or spending any funds not subject to federal limits, even for state and local races or issue discussion;

The proliferation of issue ads, by defining as "electioneering communications" broadcast ads that name a federal candidate within 30 days of a primary or caucus or 60 days of a general election, and prohibiting any such ad paid for by a corporation (including non-profit issue organizations such as Right to Life or the Environmental Defense Fund) or paid for by an unincorporated entity using any corporate or union funds.
