Somebody tell me how the Swift Boat Veterans can air an ad in October, if they are muzzled by CFR 60 days before the election.

Simple.

It's a documentary film.

As such, it is exempt from the CFR.

Just like Mikey Moore is.

Moore's movie will be running right up to election day and beyond, because, after all, it's a "documentary", and failing that test, it's "art".

And just who of the alphabets do you think is actually going to show it?

It's also exempt because it's on the internet.
