Today we've just been told we're restricted to lemonade from here on out. Why even try to be positive about it?DUmmies are happy (sort of). They're happy this issue will "Split the Republican base" so they can win in 2004!
Of course, their party will go broke, but hey, they'll learn that one soon enough.
You're freaking out over the unknown. This has no affect on your right to speak. The NRA can still run NRA ads. They just can't say "Bush." We can still plead our case without mentioning a politicians name. Our groups appeal to American tradition. There's appeals to the American haters - a small minority.

Outstanding reply. It does not infringe on my individual freedom of speech. It does, however, keep those nasty ads off my TV and my radio. But my newspaper and the Internet can still use them.
People need to read what this is all about before declaring the sky is falling on their freedom of speech.

We're not allowed to say that a candidate's stated positions would be bad, in other words.

I guess you're right. It is now a Tradition in this country to sit around discussing what we're STILL ALLOWED TO DO.
NOw go away and leave me alone; I told you I was sick of lemonade.

"This has no affect on your right to speak.Newspeak.
" The NRA can still run NRA ads. They just can't say "Bush." We can still plead our case without mentioning a politicians name."
In case you haven't noticed most folks that toss votes don't have a clue what the politicians are up to, or what they think. They feel and suck in the drivel from leftist publications. Unless those that do have some concern are presented with the truth, they remain ignorant.
