....this message"

Damn, that must be the tenth time this morning I've heard that crap. It should go something like this...

"I'm Barack Obama and this message is all bull shit but I approved it because I know you are all stupid."

I think it's to separate party ads from PAC ads...plausible denyability.

Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002

I think this was the legislation that prompted the Citizen's United case.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
