Should President Bush Sign Campaign Finance Reform Into Law? Yes - "Unregulated soft money donations have given corporations and unions a loophole around reforms that were enacted in the wake of the Watergate scandal. That loophole must be closed." Rep. Leach said, "At issue is the shape of our democracy."NO - "The bill is likely to be struck down by the courts." Rep. Delay said, "This bill...strips citizens of their political rights and unconstitutionally attempts to regulate political speech."VOTE.COM will send your vote to President Bush. http://www.vote.com/vote/43510395/index.phtml?cat=4075633

    Another attack on the Constitution by the socialist * in the congress. May the Supreme Court strike this down.

    BADBOYBOB- Its not only the * in congress. Your boy Bush, who took an oath to defend the constitution, has signed this unconstitutional action into law. Lets not be so quick to give GW a pass on this. He has broken his oath to defend the constitution.
