Re: Senate rejects Patriot Act
What a strange duck Feingold is. He's against the Patriot Act for supposedly infringing on our rights yet authored a bill that blatantly restricts our first amendment rights.

I hear he is also a member of the ACL-Jew and supports the War on Christmas.
(If you can't tell, that is supposed to be sarcasm.) |

Re: Senate rejects Patriot Act
Many republicans voted against it too. Even BILL FRIST voted against the patriot act. Why would he do that?
Every instance in history where the people trade in their freedom for security, the government takes advantage to represses its own people. A fact the corporate media doesn't want you to know. |

[/ QUOTE ] If you're claiming that campaign finance reform infringes on your first amendment right, then I roll my eyes at you sir. And for those of you you can't read past headlines, this was simply a vote on cloture, not on the bill itself. |

[/ QUOTE ] "Under the bill, labor unions and for-profit corporations would be prohibited from spending their treasury funds on "electioneering communications." "Electioneering communications" are defined as radio or TV ads that refer to a clearly identified candidate or candidates and appear within 30 days of a primary or 60 days of a general election." http://www.campaignfinancesite.org/l...on/mccain.html TEXT OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT "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." Clearly, the McCain-Feingold Act abridges "freedom of speech, or of the press." |
