[Clinging Bitterly]

Just remember - The Democrat majority is razor thin. Nothing, including this, will pass without Republican votes.

HUH??

[zeugma]

This is insane--and will be thrown out in any decent Federal Court as a First Amendment violation.

Like McCain-Feingold? 

First you'll have to find a "decent Federal Court". 

[freedom1st]

You're right this should be thrown out by any decent Federal Court. But I thought McCain-Feingold would be thrown out by the Courts.

Actually, the more likely chance is that the law could end up being vetoed and the Democrats don't have enough votes to override the veto, period! It will be 1975 all over again.

And this is where I take the opportunity to point out that when the RINOs in power for the last 6 years had the chance, they would not even defund NPR, let alone reign in the Compliance State.

and the RINO-voters who, tho' they don't see themselves as such, that DIDn'T vote to keep the pubs in power - handed Polosi and gang this whip. (These are the voter's, in their egotistical ignorance, vowed to 'teach the pubs a lesson" - trouble is, they didn't just cut off their own noses...)

_{don't anyone bother responding - I'm fed up with the whole shebang...won't be around to answer - or care}

[Tzimisce]

Not if it's the ninth circuit...hell, not even if it's the Supreme Court. :(

[beyond the sea]

EXACTLY!
