I'm fixin' to get into it with an ultra neo-con on my FB page who claims that SCotUS' decision on the special interest campaign advert thingie is "protecting free speech". Anyone know if the courts made any allowances or specifically mentioned either for or against churches/religious groups?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That's unchanged, you can endorse specific candidates all you want if you don't want your tax exemption.

He admitted to being the father of his mistress's daughter.

Oh, ok. Yeah, that'd play well from the Oval Office.
Our current Leader of the Opposition spent twenty-five years believing he'd fathered an illegitimate child. Turned out the guy wasn't his son after DNA testing.
He's in the news right now telling young women they should save themselves for marriage. At least, to his credit, he acknowledges his daughters don't listen to him on this either.

The paying the advisor to claim that he was the one having an affair and the father of the kid to protect Edwards' image is the part that blows my mind. And yeah, Elizabeth sure didn't make any friends on the campaign trail either. She comes off like a power hungry shrew. Wild and crazy it is.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh.
So I just pulled out my old tape player, and it totally works! I am currently listening to an awesome (/ridiculous) mix tape from high school! Hilarious.
