Yes, he absolutely should have, and maybe someone would have figured out why the the fascists wanted that law. Instead Democrats INCLUDING CLINTON said "gee, conservatism really does need some extra free speech rights!.." Yes, that was their reasoning: defend "free speech" in the "marketplace of ideas" while making sure that any opposing voices would be eliminated. It was as fucking stupid then as it is now.
