As to your other points, the restrictions on advertising that this case originally was limited to apply equally to Pickens/Soros or Citizen's United. As I understand it the problem isn't that CU was silenced, but that they ran afoul of spending and disclosure rules that apply equally.
And I'm surprised that you're supporting such activist judges to repeal the will of the people as carried out by their representatives.  |
