Well it's time. The unconstitutionally passed, but black-robed approved lottery in North Carolina that will NOT pay for education will begin it's advertising today. Keep in mind the law that created the lottery explicits says that the advertising for the lottery is covered by the law:

No advertising may intentionally target specific groups or economic classes.
No advertising may...present any lottery game as a means of relieving any person's financial or personal difficulties.
No advertising may have the primary purpose of inducing persons to participate in the lottery.

So the ads cannot target people who might actually play the game. No seniors, poor people, or minorities may be advertised to. The ads cannot tell people that they can pay off their bills with lottery winnings. And the ad cannot be designed to make people actually play the lottery.

What's left? A big, blank screen that says, "North Carolina Lottery: It's for the children." I guess that would work because the law doesn't say the ads can't be blatant lies.

Then again, since this is the Democrat's special program, if the advertising breaks the law, what makes anyone think the Democrats will actually care about it? They don't care about breaking any other law, constitutional or not, that they don't like.

What a cesspool.
