You realize the only way for SCOTUS to rule on something is if it is a law? They do not give advisory opinions.

ADVISORY OPINIONS??????  What part of "Congress shall make NO law.....abridging the freedom of speech?"  does George Bush and you not understand

This is not done in a vacuum, ma'am. Let's suppose the veto comes.

The DNC and McCainiacs would be running ads about how Bush vetoed legislation to stop corporate crooks from buying influence and bribing politicians. They'd be joined by the big networks.

It would be the 1995 budget battle all over again. And whatever victory we gained in that would be Phyrric. I do not intend to win a battle and lose the war.

Now, if you know of a way to make such a principled stand and neutralize attacks like that, I'd like to hear it. If not, then say so, and let's be done with it. I'm sick of name calling and insults, I want people to give me ideas, plans, and let's talk `em through.

Is that a reasonable question?
