Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Everything we see that falls into the category of “advertising” is “political” in one form or another. What’s the difference between Wal-Mart’s policies, Coca-Cola’s policies, or the Democratic (and/or Republican) Party of America’s policies??
Ultimately, they all want money, power and control; they use the media to obtain that.
As a matter of fact, I’ve learned a long time ago that everything we do is ultimately in the name of money, power and control. In the end, all three are one and the same. Get that in your head and you’ll be one happy camper!!
Aside from the fact that Goebbel’s, er, Moore’s films are blatant Democrat propaganda, wouldn’t it be interesting to know who appointed those three federal judges? Could it be one past Democrat president himself, Slick Willie?
So the NYT, PBS, Michael Moore’s entire body of “work,” The Jon Daily show are not political and are above discussion but whatever the conservatives do is.
F’ing hypocritical scum. Why are “conservative” judges hearing this?
This perfectly exemplifies the deep flaw in campaign spending limit laws.
Doug:
According to the article 2 of the 3 judges were conservative judges, and they were the more critical ones.
Also according to the article, the issue was not over the theatre showings of this “movie” nor the DVD copies that you can buy, but the running of paid ads “during the peak presidential primary season “.
So, whatever you think of campaign finance laws, these ads are not in the same category as Moore’s “movie”.
Don’t kid yourself Ted, there’s no such thing as a conservative judge…
The two conservative judges were appointed by Reagan and the first Bush. Under Bush 2, Republicans seem to have realized the importance of appointing truly conservative minded judges. The result of not doing so has been way too many activist judges interpreting the constitution quite liberally. The pendulum slowly swinging back.
I have to wonder how long before a Utube spot will be considered ‘advertising’ and be challenged.
Tis only a matter of time.
The judges aren’t looking at regulating the movie, only the TV advertisements for it. That’s the difference – if Michael Moore had tried airing adds for Fahrenheit 9/11 just prior to the 2004 election, he would theoretically have run afoul of the same laws. The operative word being “theoretically”.
