Free speech.

Free speech, except for Cleland?

I guess he's free to ask for censorship, it's just moronic to do so.

Asking for ads containing proven falsehoods to be withdrawn is not the

You must mean the one that equated Bush with Hitler.

The one sent in to a MoveOn contest? However heinous, that would still
be a political opinion, different in kind from the Swiftee claims.

No, there was another that was broadcast. Not quite as direct
