No, its people like you who don't serve democracy very well. Who decides whats trash and whats truth, you or the government?

You are so misguided, it would be funny if it weren't so sad. The words "Congress shall make no law..." are clear, its just that people like you don't give a crap.

Uh, Mr Jefferson, Richard W. says you're a wing nut because you think the idea of submitting political speech to the government for pre approval is the road toward totalitarianism.

Mr Jefferson: #$$%^%#@$%^^

This is a mischaracterization of what I said and you know it. The idea is get the sewer money out of politics so that in the fog of campaigning the truth isn't a casualty and the politicians are not beholden to the special interests. Besides, what do you have to fear anyway? Everyone, or nearly everyone, here seems to believe that the Supremes will knock this legislation down anyway. Let's test it and find out; shall we?

The idea that you will not be free to express your political views is absurd on its face.
