"Free speech must not translate into dollars. That was not the intent of the founding fathers."

I guess I need translation. I chose this comment to try to get a handle on the issues at hand. The founding fathers were very clear, intent is very clear. If dollars and freedom of speech were to be limited the founding fathers would have said such. Since no mention of limiting dollars as a qualifier for freedom of speech were never written in the Constitution or Bill of Rights, I have to dismiss your statement as extreme (left or right) or a desire or wish to regulate that which was never regulated since its infancy.

Sorry Fossil, but you tend to overreach. Freedom of speech was to protect those regardless of funds to speak freely in public without retribution or harm from government or those trying to control ideas from being said.

The beauty of the Constitution is its simplicity in language and to have the Federalist Papers to provide the ruminations and discussions that lead to its final draft.

If you claim Ms. Palin is a "queen idiot", I suspect your reading list must be of "high" standards to come to that conclusion. Unless of course, she is a queen. The idiot part, I am still researching. But then again, I know you do your own independent research.

Suggestion: Try reaching out a little further for the truth. It is within your grasp, but you are clouded with villains.
