CNSNews has a long-standing admiration for Nancy Pelosi, dating back to asking if ObamaCare is Constitutional.
Now, CNSNews reports the Wicked Witch of the West seeks to revive the Sedition Act, in spirit, if not in practice.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Thursday endorsed a movement announced by other congressional Democrats on Wednesday to ratify an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow Congress to regulate political speech when it is engaged in by corporations as opposed to individuals.
The First Amendment says in part: “Congress shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press…”
Television and radio networks, newspapers, publishing houses, movie studios and think tanks, as well as political action committees, are usually organized as, or elements of, corporations.
Pelosi said the Democrats’ effort to amend the Constitution is part of a three-pronged strategy that also includes promoting the DISCLOSE Act, which would increase disclosure requirements for organizations running political ads, and “reducing the role of money in campaigns” (which some Democrats have said can be done through taxpayer funding of campaigns).
I’ve got this great idea, Nancy: let’s wait and read the SCOTUS opinions on your last steaming loaf of hooey before we even give you the time of day.
It is as though these proto-fascist Democrats realize that, lacking any basis in reason for their bankrupt ideas, they have to go fully Hugo Chavez to regain enough control of the public discourse to retain their fading grip on power.
Keep up the pressure, people.

The Democrats have gone bonkers.
No, scratch that. They’ve gone naked totalitarian.
Well it isn’t as if we didn’t aready know we needed to abolish Nancy Pelosi.
Just what is “proto” about Pelosi’s fascism?
She crossed the line years ago and coddling with modifiers like “proto” gives her room to escape.
They’re insane. We need to reopen the sanitariums and put people like her in them so she won’t hurt herself or anyone else.
How a Constitutional amendment that requires Pelosi to S.T.F.U.? Forever and ever, Amen.
The old bitty has Botoxed her brain into Alzheimer’s Disease, and pretty it ain’t.
JeffS, you can’t Botox what you’ve never had, and I don’t see any point in her political career to indicate there’s ever been anything inside her head but a “Space For Rent” sign.
They’ve been that way for quite awhile now, Dianna. The only thing new is their brazeness.
Damn right. Nothing proto about that klepto.
Off Topic: I was just looking up ‘proto’ at the OED and they’ve got a quiz up that will tell you what classical character from mythology you are:

‘Who are you, Bob?’, you ask with baited breath…
Which classical character are you?
You are Odysseus. You are renowned for your cunning wiles and fantastic plans. You’ve always got a trick up your sleeve. You are also a home-loving type and will do anything to protect your family.
I’ll gladly be the co-sponsor.
