Abstract

"Politics + Other Mistakes" piece on the Christian Civic League of Maine, commenting on their recent legal suit against the Federal Elections Commission. Under the leadership of Michael Heath, the league is claiming it's being deprived of its right to free speech due to a law banning corporations and special interests from running television spots within 30 days of an election if those spots name any federal candidate in that election. The league wants to run TV ads urging U.S. Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, both R-Maine, to vote for a constitutional amendment defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman only.
