“What part of “Congress shall make no” do you mistake?”

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

So how does the McCain-Feingold Act intrude on first amendment rights?

Specifically.

Why hasn’t it been overturned in the courts if it is unconstitutional?

wrong test. What part of “Congress shall make no” do you mistake?

And, just to move things along:
the Founding Fathers were refering to political speech. The “yelling fire in a crowded theater” was a canard. It wasn’t applicable, unless somehow yelling “fire” in a crowded theater had some political tint.

As I explained to my grandson, the “Congress shall make no…” is why there can’t be “truth-in-advertising” laws applied to political commercial.

I also still have a lot of faith in the American people, that when faced with issues without a party standing out in front to dictate to them where they should stand, they side with liberty more times than not.

Hmm. I think that, given just the evidence provided by how many are willing to follow Obama’s path, that your faith in the wisdom of the average American voter is a bit naiive (I don’t intend that as a statement that you are naiive in general). You speak of a situation where there isn’t a party out in front of the voters telling them which way to think, but that isn’t the case. Regardless of which candidate wins the Presidency, BOTH parties will still be there, telling us which way to think.

Right now, the nation seems to be slightly leaning towards a marked lack of a long view, where it comes to their personal liberties and small government. . .preferring instead entitlements and handouts.

I can’t see the future though. Perhaps I’m overly cynical.

“All I want is to live my life with the liberty every man deserves and is entitled to have. Obama certainly won’t do it, but either will McCain. I don’t know how this idea of the “lesser of two evils” came into existence as somehow noble and better than standing firm. I guess man can talk himself into anything.”

At the end of it we are all responsible for our own liberty. McCain will help to preserve it.(even reclaim some that has been lost) Obama will make you out to be a ignorant redneck for insisting on it.

I have been trying to trace the idea that allowing Obama to win would somehow purify the GOP back to it’s source. A friend runs a PR agency and he suspects that it came out of Hill & Knowlton or Jasculca-Terman. If you or anyone else recall where you first heard it please let me know.

“To all our comrades in the McCain camp, if you want conservatives to vote for your man McCain, quit belittling those that aren’t voting for him and go make a difference.”

Very good advice. Please believe that I see a very real threat to our way of life, our country, our sovereignty and Constitution in Obama and what he advocates. Perhaps when some of us state that it sounds like hyperbole but I happen to think that is just clear vision.

Nice Bill and very persuasive!

Thank you, If I come across as snarky or rude I apologize. I am just passionate about the fact that Obama would be a catastrophe for this country. I believe McCain to be a good man and no one can question his dedication to the country itself. I know and come from some of the same traditions this man was raised with and the idea that he would betray the country out of cynicism or expedience is just plain wrong. John McCain has demonstrated that he loves the USA. Obama has demonstrated that he thinks it is populated by a bunch of bitter, constitution clinging, hillbilly bigots who haven’t been indoctrinated educated into compliance with their agenda enlightenment.
