Sep 8, 2004"Free as a tethered ass!"
Do you want to know what it means to be free in America today? It means that if you want to air a political ad in the last 60 days of this presidential campaign, you are free to wade through this, to see if you're allowed.

The title of this post is from W. S. Gilbert's Princess Ida.
