Thurston County Judge has overstepped his boundaries

Recently, a Thurston County judge ruled that a couple of local talk radio hosts - John Carlson and Kirby Wilbur on KVI - had made "in-kind" campaign contributions when they endorsed I-912 (the repeal of the unnecessary new gas tax foisted on us by the Dem dominated state legislature), and urged listeners to sign the initiative petition so that it would be on the November ballot. This vague and rambling ruling abridges political free speech, which is contrary to the First Amendment of the Constitution, and is based on this judge's vague and rambling interpretation of the McCain-Feingold Act.

Julia A. Youngs points out in this opinion piece just how wrong this is.

As fellow blogger reality hammer has stated, I will defend my right to political free speech with vigor, all the way to the Federal Supreme Court if needed. Just try to stop me!
