Too bad the current Scotus can't be relied on to bat that down. Maybe the ACLU will come to the rescue<ggg> "Beginning next year, the F.E.C. will institute new rules on the restricted uses of the Internet as it relates to political speech."

Well, if thats true, O'REILLY is on the way OUT. I dont know about the rest of you but I trust the BLOGGERS more then I trust CBS or any of the other networks or big papers like the NY Times or LA times. jdn

O'Reilly has also said things like "unfair free speech did in Dan Rather," and compared people who post on the Internet to criminals in general and child molesters in particular. He's a boob.

And what about the out of country bloggers? How are they going to control them? Eat your hearts out Mr and Ms 1984. "Beginning next year, the F.E.C. will institute new rules on the restricted uses of the Internet as it relates to political speech." Yeah, sure. Send me money you oppressed masses to the Right and the Left! I'll run any sort of political blog you want.... Hell, pay me enough, (an awful lot), and I'll even write it. And if I don't have time, I'll hire kids from the local U's creative writing program to do it. frank@favnewwordpreposterosity.com
