(My comment, this is a stain on the US Constitution)

Truly, it is a shame that unscrupulous Enron executives will no longer be able to donate millions of units of free speech to our corrupt politicians.

Hey genius, it also means that if you try to team up with fellow citizens to finance an ad that mentions a politicians name before an election, YOU'LL GO TO JAIL.

Meanwhile media outlets are given a free pass to say whatever they like. In fact, they'll have the market cornered on political speech before an election.

So, your representative passed a law you don't like? Want to tell people about it so they'll vote him out? TOUGH!!! Do so and you'll see the inside of a cell.

This ought to be called the "Non-Accountability Act".
