Quote:It passed A vote, but it's a long way from amending the Constitution. Still, your point is taken. An amendment like this would be a bad thing because, as Marty pointed out, it would limit free speech.

 

I'm assuming you are also against this bill. I bet this is one of the rare occasions where you agree with the ACLU.

 

You are absolutely correct in that it is one of the rare occasions where I agree with the ALCU.

 

The thing that I find interesting is that this bill was overlooked by the press.  I'm willing to bet that the majority of people reading this thread had no idea that this was being proposed.  I didn't know it until I read Ted Cruz's book, A Time for Truth and actually did some research myself (his book does have footnotes citing sources).  This is the same book that the New York Times wanted to keep off of their best sellers list.
