Damn the Man! Save the Empire!

Per other blogs, Molly, and now Wonkette as well...The coming crackdown on blogging

Some of Wonkette's commentary:
FEC: Bloggers Beware
When we first heard about the Federal Election Commission coming crackdown on blogs who link to (i.e., "assist") campaigns, we had the same reaction as many of you: "Wait, we're going to have to try to understand McCain-fucking-Feingold? Numbers are scary!"
...
Less heartening: Bradley Smith confides that the law may be triggered by simply "reproducing a campaign's material... That'll count as an expenditure that counts against campaign finance law." But what if it's reproduced with a "heh" at the end?
