The Left\Democrats have been in an uproar about the Citizens
United ruling by the Supreme Court that actually allowed free political speech
the horrid McCain Feingold Act blocked. The Act states there can be no mention
a candidate within 60 days of a general election or 30 days of a primary. What?
It's a political campaign for Gods' sake, and you can't mention the politician
that's campaigning?
The issue brought before the Court was Citizens United was
airing or going to air, I forget which, Hillary: The Movie, within thirty days of the election. Of
course communist Michael Moore's propagandist lie filled movie Fahrenheit 9/11 was allowed to air, and
all it did was bash Bush.
The details of the
ruling and the anti free speech McCain Feingold here. Link to Citizens United here.
This is a vid of
the President of Citizens United at the Republican Convention with a good
update.
The obvious answer to all this mess is to repeal McCain Feingold and just have full disclosure of who donates how much to whom. Let citizens decide.
