how is there ANY similarity between legitimate depiction of a candidate's true political convictions - and correspondingly their likely actions once elected - and slanderous gossip about someone's personal life?


G-man's arguement is one of principle, that even lies are worth free speach protection. I already know you feel that your entitled to say whatever you want but that's not what the arguement is. G-man was talking about candidates & what a chilling effect it would have on free speach if they threatened legal action. I presented an example where McCain has done precisely that.


Fair play!
