The Dems are at it again. They HATE the CONSERVATIVE voice out there, and want to SILENCE it . They already know the majority listens to these shows, and do NOT care to listen to the LYING Democrat point of view.
However, the whole deal is funny, considering during the Presidential runs of CLINTON, Rush Limbaugh and OTHER Conservative talk show hosts were SHOUTING from the ROOF tops the FACTS we should be aware of, yet he was STILL voted in!
So was ANYONE REALLY LISTENING and GETTING it? You wonder....
I will stand AGAINST anything that takes AWAY our FREEDOM of speech!! That is really what it is all about!

If the Fairness Doctrine should be applied, then the conservatives would have to fight for fair treatment in the Big Media too. Imagine that!
The trouble is, the Big Media are leftist, though ironically they have gotten extremely wealthy by Kapitalist means, and they may have enough money to win in court, against the Talk Radio people who have more moderate means of fighting.
Seriously, it's no good having the Government rule on what is fair coverage; the free media are supposed to be watching the government, not the other way around. You know, government of the People....

The information made public was much more honest when it was in place. After rat-face Reagan, the butcher of Social Security ended it we started hearing only what was passed by corporate interests and their puppets.
Contrary to divisive propaganda, the lack of it has resulted in severe censoring of what the public is "allowed" to know.

All of our freedoms in America are under attack, hasn't anyone noticed?, sure we have! I say lets fight, register and vote. Call your Representatives and Complain. Write your local papers OP-ED. We still can act up,although,it is getting harder to pull off in this Police State mentality,mind set,atmosphere. We can also talk, and reason together,right here on Answers. TAKE BACK YOUR VOTE-KEEP AMERICA FREE.

I don't even want to contemplate the evils that liberals have in store for America and yet the masses go vote having not a clue that they vote for a four pronged pitch fork that's going to stick them right where it hurts most!
