STOP THE "FAIRNESS DOCTRINE"

Today, the Speaker of The House, Big Nancy Pelosi said that she wants to see a return of the so-called "fairness doctrine" http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=27185 and that she will stop legislation to stop a return to the so-called "fairness doctrine".
If you want to show your concern, follow this link http://www.mrcaction.org/512/petition.asp?PID=17077071&NID=1 and sign the petition.
Remember, all of you who think that four years of a President Messiah Barack will be OK, this is the kind of legislation that the left will use to silence conservative voices. Once they take down conservative talk radio, this medium will be next. Do not think that this will be hyperbole.
This election maybe the last gasp of the hard left for a long time if we conservatives are smart. We can not vote for a third party candidate with no chance. We can not vote for Sen. Messiah Barack. And, we can not stay home because Sen. John "F--- You" McCain is not the perfect conservative choice. On this issue, Sen. "F--- You" McCain has been on our side. He has consistently opposed any attempts at silencing the conservative side, even when we have rightfully called him on the carpet for his grievous derelictions.
Here is a chance for conservatives, and fair-minded liberals and all who favor true free speech to let congress know that any attempts in Orwellian fashion to silence conservative voices will not just happen.

Good, you save me the trouble of writing this post. I'll check out that petition.

The only REAL problem with "the fairness doctrine" is that conservatives have been completely unable to convince anyone but OTHER conservatives that 99.9% of all media is ultra-liberal.

Imagine if we got to balance THAT? No 60 Minutes, no Dateline, no network news, no CNN, no MSNBC, no PBS, without rebuttal.

Then we move on to magazines (Time!) and newspapers (NYT!) and damn, we'd have conservative news and information coming out our ears. Imagine the minds we could shape with THAT kind of power.

Go ahead and balance Rush. Balance John Stossel. But not without balancing out every other piece of liberal clap-trap we've suffered with for decades. And if we made it abundantly clear we intended to do as much, watch how fast Pelosi changes her mind.

This really enrages me. I can't stand a party that freaks out at this so called slippery slope talk about wire-tapping and then wants to infringe in freedom of speech...the party who fights for NAMBLA as speech wants to control how and what we say...this sucks. great post. I am so riled up! :)N
