“We are very frustrated because we have a Supreme Court that seems determined to say that the wealthier have more right to free speech than the rest of us. For example, they say you couldn’t stop me from spending all the money I’ve saved over the last five years on Hillary’s campaign if I wanted to, even though it would clearly violate the spirit of campaign finance reform,” – Bill Clinton, December 24, 2007.
In case you’re unaware, today it was revealed that Bill & Hill loaned Hillary’s campaign $ 5 million in January and are considering giving more.

Doug: I am I right in interpreting Bill’s statement to be doublespeak as he has already done. The McCain Feingold legislation I believe barred political action groups from airing ads within 60 days from a presidential election. Bad legislation for freedom of speech(My only fault with Fred Thompson for supporting it). Thompson had the integrity to publicly state that it was a wrong vote. Hasn’t the Supreme Court overturned that part of the bill?
