One Liberal friend of mine proclaimed that our nation is suddenly
ruined as a result. Wait a second! These outrageous and unconstitutional laws
did not come about until 1971! Our
nation seemed to be doing fine without them until the Progressives put them on
our books. Sadly it took over four
decades to strike some of these laws.
Most of our crooked politicians found loopholes or simply
laundered money to get around the money limits.
The law seemed to benefit political scoundrels more than anyone!
Free speech is just that.
Nazi. Communists, Fascists and
Progressives will always demand exceptions that limit speech as well as every
other liberty. They first attacked talk
radio. Today’s the Internet freedom has
caused that Communist infiltrator in our Whitehouse to hand over control of it
to foreign bodies controlled by his Commie friends.
With free speech all politicians have a level playing field
and popularity rules because people can support the candidates they support as
much as they want.
Long live free speech!

Laws like this are just like gun laws – they only affect the law abiding.
The most common way to circumnavigate contribution caps is called “bundling”. That’s when I a person simply gives a candidate as much money as they want under different names. Yes that’s illegal too but people are never prosecuted for it unless they’re on the president’s enemy list (such as Dinesh D'Souza). In fact our president has been quite open about his appreciation for “bundlers” and has rewarded them handsomely with jobs and favors. 80% of the green energy grants handed out by the Department of Energy in the last few years have been to the president’s bundlers.
Bundlers are more then just people who throw parties and collect contributions for candidates. That is what they would have you believe.
