Quote of the Day
Once again, from the brilliant Ms. Coulter:
Love or hate her, she knows what she's talking about. Long ago Rush aptly termed McCain-Feingold, the incumbant protection act. How undeniably true!
The more you follow politics, the more disgusting politicians become. And to think we have to vote one of them into the White House; or more likely, vote against one of them from getting into the White House.
Pro-lifers like to ask, "How many Einsteins have we lost to abortion?" I ask: How many Reagans have we lost to campaign-finance reform?There's much more brilliance in her most recent column wherein she assails the campaign-finance restrictions which have and will keep good people out of the despicable campaign process. In fact there is so much brilliance to behold in her column, I fear, in your laziness, that you'll not take the initiative to go there; so here are 3 of the money paragraphs:
By prohibiting speech by anyone else, the campaign-finance laws have vastly magnified the power of the media -- which, by the way, are wholly exempt from speech restrictions under campaign-finance laws. The New York Times doesn't have to buy ad time to promote a politician; it just has to call McCain a "maverick" 1 billion times a year.
It is because of campaign-finance laws like McCain-Feingold that big men don't run for office anymore. Little men do. And John McCain is the head homunculus.
You want Reagan back? Restore the right to free speech, and you will have created the conditions that allowed Reagan to run.
Love or hate her, she knows what she's talking about. Long ago Rush aptly termed McCain-Feingold, the incumbant protection act. How undeniably true!
