What a delusioned dumbass to think that the cure to a bad law is another bad law.

It's OK, he's a Republican. They're on our side, remember? ;-)

I feel much better, knowing that politicians and bureaucrats are going to protect us from too much unrestricted free speech.

Agree. Apparently he has never heard of the "Law of Unintended Consequences"?

"What a delusioned dumbass to think that the cure to a bad law is another bad law."



Bob Ney OPPOSED McCain-Feingold. He was the lead sponsor of the alternative measure that would have preserved our First Amendment rights. Unfortunately, his measure failed, and McCain-Feingold was approved by both Houses and, in arguably the worst blunder of George W. Bush's first term, signed into law. Since it will be impossible to get the votes to repeal McCain-Feingold, I don't think it is unfair or unwise for Ney to propose that the rules that apply to everyone else apply with equal force to 527s.
