This is actually a good thing, believe it or not, since no one knows what that stupid ruling said and no one is going to read it. Least of all the SCOTUS justices.

That's make sense. The federal appeals court ruled the law is unconstitutional, but is nevertheless going to allow the law to remain in place.

Why? This hurts the demontreats more than the GOP so I say "take your time..."

"allowing 2004 candidates to operate under the law passed by Congress last year"

What's truly amazing is that this AP story didn't take the opportunity to say it was signed by the President.

Oh, wait. Now I get it. AP thinks CFR is a good thing. They wouldn't want to give him credit.

Nevermind.

I wonder if one of these judges figured this out in advance ?

The AP has not given essential information in this story.
(who what when where why)

What court (and what panel of that court) had struck down the law?

What court (or panel of that court) has now stayed that order?

This information is critical. (It was the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, but we don't know if this was the same 3 Judge panel or the full court speaking).

If it has been found unconstitutional by a court, then this is the BEST CASE for CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE that has ever been on record. Why would someone submit temporarily to an illegal order?

It MUST be ignored.

Everyone MUST exercise their free speech right up to the election.
