Oh goody.

I'm sure the good Judge will do a bang-up job.
Same as...well; forget it.

Guess we're gonna get this CFR legislation after all.

I believe I heard some talking head on one of the cable news shows state that Bush had concerns about whether all parts of the bill were constitutional, but overall was good enough for him to sign the bill.

Is this ridiculous logic or what? Mark my words Bush not vetoing this bill will be a political mistake. The Supreme Court is going to slam the provisions down worse that the Fla. Supreme Court over the election. Mr. and Mrs. America may extract hide from some of the proponents of this bill when they realize the hoax these jerks were perpetuating. I hope McCain, Feingold et all are thrown out of office after the Supremes bitch slap them. I for one can hardly wait.

If Ken Starr moves in this matter as fast as he did against Clinton we can expect this case to go before a court around the year 2051.

The bill is H.R. 3256.

Correction: H.R.2356.

foreverfree

Under the legislation, the most that an individual can contribute in hard money to a candidate per election would be $2,000, double the current ceiling.

I was just listening to Rush Limbaugh, and he said that there is an exception to that limit: if one's opponent is a rich guy financing his campaign with his own money, the hard money limit of the first candidate is raised to $6000.

I haven't read the legislation, but it seems to me that
if a candidate enlisted a rich dummy candidate (either in his party for the primary election or in one of the minor parties for the general election), then he could inflate his hard money contribution limit to $6000.
