Court Overturns Limits on Political Ads, Part of the Campaign Finance Law
...This case has been closely watched for several reasons. For one, organizations with quite disparate interests, including the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Rifle Association, the Chamber of Commerce and the conservative Club for Growth, have argued that they have a right to petition the government.
But political advertisements do not petition the government.
You want to know the truth, I'd like to see two new TV channels exclusively for political ads...one for national campaigns, one for state and local campaigns. Maybe one especially for issues advertising. We need some easily reversible way of isolating the crap.
