Feingold criticizes Bush over McCain-Feingold

As Sen. Russ Feingold points out, the goal of the new campaign finance law is to get outside groups to register as Political Action Committees (PACs), but not to ban the speech itself. President Bush has said this week he wants to get rid of all outside advertising.

As Atrios points out, this new hard line Bush is touting on political advertising is in direct contrast to his past position on the issue, and how his own campaigns have operated.
