Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader hopes that you all were paying attention to other bloggers and noting the testimony given to the FEC yesterday concerning regulation of politically oriented blogs.
There was an AP story about it. You can read the full text of Michael Krempasky here on his site, Redstate.org.
Your Maximum Leader (and many others) have noted for quite a while that to require the FEC to create guidelines which regulate blogs under the guise of campaign finance reform are just a ridiculous government infringment of free speech. Last time your Maximum Leader checked pretty much everyone in the country (with a minimal IQ and political awareness) was in agreement that freedom of political speech was guaranteed by the First Amendment of the Constitution.
One hopes that the FEC will keep regulations to an absolute minimum (since they have to create some it seems by Cogressional mandate). But one would further hope that Congress would just think again and repeal the laws they wrote last year.
(Yeah, yeah. Very unlikely. But one can still hold out hope.)
Carry on.
