Funny. I fit neither of those categories and a ADAMANTLY opposed to "CFR"--which is a massive and unconstitutional abridgment of freedom of speech.
McCain should be SHOT for making it happen, and Bush should be impeached for signing the damned thing. Feingold is a "progressive", and you expect unconstitutional legislation from THEM.
Read the post. I did not say everyone that is opposed to it is inside the beltway. For intense activists, it is a very important issue, but I submit that a wrong vote on that issue should not per se brand that person as a liberal or unacceptable.
In 1967, Reagan signed an abortion bill in California that was presented to him as restricting abortion. In fact, it included a “health of the Mother exception” and turned out to be the most permissive in the nation. Reagan often mentioned it as a huge mistake. Yet no one labeled him pro-abortion in perpetuity because he made a mistake, although it was a very grave one, far graver than McCain Feingold which, after all, can be repealed.
