About to go on KSKY Dallas to talk DOJ.

You usually know you are being talked about by Rush Limbaugh when your phone starts ringing frantically, your voicemail box fills and dozens of emails start coming.  That’s what happened today.  Here is the transcript and a link to my Limbaugh Letter interview with Rush.

It is shameful that leftists let their hatred of corporations lead
them to throw free speech under the bus. There is a smarter way to get
corporate money out of politics: Shrink the state. If government has
fewer favors to sell, citizens will spend less money trying to win them.

Perhaps the biggest problem with giving the
government power to regulate political speech — “campaign-finance
reform” — is that that power has been routinely used to try to silence
political opposition.  Bradley Smith, former FEC Chairman @ National Review Online

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell warned that President Barack
Obama is seeking to change the First Amendment to keep corporate money
out of political campaigns.

“Democrats in the House and Senate recently proposed the so-called,
‘People’s Rights Amendment’ which basically repeals the First Amendment
and just this week, citing Citizens United, the president’s top
political adviser — this is not some back-bench member of the House of
Representatives — the president’s top political adviser, David Axelrod,
told an audience in Manhattan that, quote, ‘When we win, we will use
whatever tools are out there, including a constitutional amendment, to
turn it back,’” McConnell said in a speech at the American Enterprise
Institute on Friday.  This, my friends, is all you need to know about this
administration’s view of free speech. The courts have said that Congress
doesn’t have the authority to muzzle political speech. So the president
himself will seek to go around it by attempting to change the First
Amendment. Amending the First Amendment for the first time in history is
an act of radicalism — an act of radicalism.”
