The entire text of the G.A.B. 1 Rule can be found here (Sections 1.10, 1.28, and 1.42 are most revealing):

Political speech is the PRIMARY reason for freedom of speech enumerated in the First Amendment.

Needs an injunction to put a STOP on the witch hunt until the courts can sift through the mountain of bull hockey here. Clearly this is Rat output (I am so heavy hearted to see Sensenbrenner in the list) that seeks to trip up, or open up for Joe the Plumber type attacks, those whose involvement in election year politics is de minimis.

WI can kiss my A$$ ~ and GIT OUT MY WAY!

I'd rather fight them than pay their extortion in violation of my rights.

Send some of those fascist pigs out here to Virginia to discuss this ~ they haven't go the C.O.Jones's.

But we have the process ~ Smithfield Ham!

Color me ignorant but can governments just keep passing laws that void the Constituion?

The great minds who formed our government must have anticipated this kind of intrusion.

They would fine anyone caught doing such, so website owners and newspapers and tv and radio stations and any billboards used etc.

They did and the remedy they provided can be found in my tagline.

But fined in what way? I know I sound ignorant but how can this be enforced? There have been laws like this in the past but what if all sides just ignored this and just carried on?

We need to get this on every conservative show and blog in the country. This is the Dem’s plan to save their seats in the mid-terms, it cannot stand!

“...and what happens if this is just ignored? The Cheese Police comes to your door?”

You can listen to a discussion with a constitutional lawyer - scroll down on the page (currently at the bottom of the page) to find Vicki McKenna show and listen to part 1 and part 2

Aug. 4: WI Government going after the Tea Parties and free speech rights.

HERE IS A LINK TO THE Vicki McKenna Show

http://www.newstalk1130.com/cc-common/podcast.html

The constitutional lawyer is Jim Troupis and he said he suggests massive civil disobedience to this law— It
may be the only way this constitutionality of this can be challenged.

Agreed...and laws like this are the primary reason for the freedom enumerated in the Second Amendment.
