4. No, sorry friend, but this is NOT following campaign finance law
This is trying to do back door censorship on anything that is hurtful to Bush. F911 is a MOVIE, it doesn't ask you to vote for anything or anybody, it does not try to sway people to vote for or against anybody, it is a documentary that is presenting FACTS.

If this ban is allowed to happen, then we are on a slippery slope to severe censorship of anything critical of any candidate. Think about it, no more op-eds, no more damning newspaper reports, television reporting scrubbed, the list of probable abuses under the rubrick of campaign reform is endless. Why don't we just leave it at the First Amendment, Freedom of Speech, and let the chips fall where they may. If a candidate has nothing to hide, then he has nothing to fear from the exercise of our First Amendment rights. If he does have something to hide, then I damn sure want to know it, whether the candidate is Democrat or Republican.

Don't give away our rights friend, they're being stripped away too quickly as is.
