I stand corrected.

Here’s my concern...congress drafted a resolution condemning Move-On.org for its “General Betray Us” ad in the NY Times. So Move-On is a Political action committee.

Now I’m pretty sure Rush could file a grievance cause he is a private citizen and his congress did the ONE thing our founding fathers never wanted our government to do.

My question is....did congress also do a bad thing when they condemned the General Betray Us ad by Move-On.org.

Understand I’m not making a value judgement here. Move-on really did take out an ad; no one lied about what they said. Still, even the Moonbats have free speech in this country. While Rush was lied about by congress.

Are each of these congressional condemnations equal in weight in terms of their constitutional illegality?

no.

one was a direct reaction to a provable specific advertisement.

the other was a artificial reaction due to a totally fabricated statement.

It would be like somebody producing a flamed reply to a posting you never actually made. Just that somebody said you made.
