Cold water thrown on 'Fahrenheit 9/11’ ads
Commercials for the Michael Moore movie could end on July 30 due to federal election regulations.
Superimposing a monkey-head or a horse's ass over the Chimp-in-Chief's face wouldn't work either.
There's some good news, though I'm not holding my breath with these cheeseballs: 'at issue in the FEC’s opinion is whether documentary films qualify for a “media exemption,” which allows members of the press to discuss political candidates freely in the days before an election.'
“If a documentary produced by an independent company would be subject to restriction or, equally important, if efforts to promote the documentary would be subject to restriction, I think that is very problematic.” - FEC commissioner Michael Toner. Hmmmmmm.
