Supreme Court: Politicians Can Lie

This is mind boggling. Puzzling. Ironic. On the eves of possibly the biggest presidential election ever, as far as our sovereignty and future as a nation goes, they want to legalize the lies that politicians make during their campaigns, even though the lies are a huge reason why we're in this predicament in the first place! Was it not lies that got us into a war with Iraq? Is there not more lying every single hour of the day attempting to get us into a conflict with Iran? This is unbelievable. Lying has become acceptable with politicians, at least in the state of Washington. This is exactly what we don't need. Our free speech and First Amendment rights are in danger more every day, and these pigs want to protect the rights of the assholes that do their best to keep us in this situation.

In the state of Washington, incompetence and deliberate falsehoods of a politician's campaign is now accepted. Why are politicians allowed to freely destroy our country, as well as our constitution, with lies, while at the same time being safeguarded by the very document they help belittle? This was a law that banned a candidate from INTENTIONALLY lying about their opponent.
