Lies Are Legal in Politics

How about that!

Sharply split Washington Supreme Court says candidates can lie about political opponents

Washington Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a law that bars political candidates from deliberately making false statements about their opponents violates the First Amendment right of free speech.

Basically, one person decided.

Somehow, 5-4 decisions — while stronger by proportion that 3-2 decisions — seem wrong.

Maybe group rulings need a Win by Two or More threshhold, eh?

Or maybe Margin of One decisions should automatically be put to a vote by 100 bloggers. 😀

Now I may be on to something. (Or at least on something.) 😐
