*** But seriously... A CENTURY???!?!?!?!? Why hasn't anyone else picked up on that? CFR has been in place for 9 years? ***

No offense. but yes almost a century. There have been campaign finance laws against companies and corporations donating that go back to the Woodrow Wilson₍₁₎ era. Glenn Beck's mentioned it on his TV show

CFR on the other hand just added more unconstitutional limits, like the black out period prior to an election. CFR was really the McCain-Feingold Incumbent Protection Act.

(1) Woodrow Wilson was more than just an overt racist. He was one evil sob, an early San Fran Nan type 'progressive'. (proto marxist)

You are correct, a century. Although, from what I've read elsewhere, the SCOTUS didn't throw out the old laws but simply addressed the McCain/fiengold one. So if what I've read is correct, Obama is again lying on this issue.

But weren’t the overturned parts more part of McCain-Feingold?
