Wow! Freedom of Speech Includes Political Speech!

Wow! Freedom of Speech Includes Political Speech!

The Supreme Court actually struck
down a big chunk of the McCain-Feingold Act, because it prevented political speech by corporations. While I have some genuine discomfort with the extent to which big money (from corporations and labor unions and interest groups) pollutes the political process, McCain-Feingold didn't actually solve this problem: it just strengthened the situation for the overwhelmingly leftist mass media.
