Senate Democrats approve amendment to eliminate free speech

[BlindBoo]

Nothing limiting free speech in here at all, unless you consider money donated to a political campaign a form of free speech.

Section 1. To advance the fundamental principle of political
equality for all, and to protect the integrity of the legislative and
electoral processes, Congress shall have power to regulate the raising
and spending of money and in-kind equivalents with respect to Federal
elections, including through setting limits on--
``(1) the amount of contributions to candidates for
nomination for election to, or for election to, Federal office;
and
``(2) the amount of funds that may be spent by, in support
of, or in opposition to such candidates.
``Section 2. To advance the fundamental principle of political
equality for all, and to protect the integrity of the legislative and
electoral processes, each State shall have power to regulate the
raising and spending of money and in-kind equivalents with respect to
State elections, including through setting limits on--
``(1) the amount of contributions to candidates for
nomination for election to, or for election to, State office;
and
``(2) the amount of funds that may be spent by, in support
of, or in opposition to such candidates.
``Section 3. Nothing in this article shall be construed to grant
Congress the power to abridge the freedom of the press.
``Section 4. Congress and the States shall have power to implement
and enforce this article by appropriate legislation.'

your link doesn't at all say what you say it does - and you linked to beck's site so you know you're really stretching the truth.

Glenn Beck is more believable then any libtard in office or the media.





the link was good, contrary to what you think, but you are a libtard.

no, it certainly doesn't

from the link

The Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday advanced legislation to amend the Constitution so Congress can regulate campaign spending, a change many Republicans say would alter the First Amendment right to freedom of speech.


campaign finance reform was a major gripe from the Republicans when Obama was raking in the cash and spending it like there was no tomorrow ... now the Dems want to regulate campaign spending its a threat to the Constitution.

IMO the GOP should take notes to remind them exactly what the oppose,, and why they oppose it. They seem to forget more often than not.
