Care to educate me, or are you just gonna toss out jabs without justification?

So your saying SBVFT could put tuns of anti-kerry adds in the media and since they focus on kerry the media would have to offer bush equal time for pro-bush adds? Find me a judge that wouldn't rule agaisnt this usage.
Here is the exploit. Sinclare could give some group free airtime that is anti-kerry. Thus because of equal time they have to give bush equal time and give him time for pro-adds for FREE. If you don't see how stupid that sounds....
