I've had quite a few laughs over the idiotic whining about the "fairness
doctrine." I'm old enough to remember the horrors of the HUAC hearings
and the various blacklists against actors, directors, writers, and
performing artists. *That* was real war against freedom of speech.

You know, I've heard lots of railing against reinstating the fairness
doctrine, but I've heard of very few that actually want to reinstate it.
Obama, for one, is on the record against reinstating it.

Liberals or a segment there of are not the primary movers on this. It is
just a front.
Politicians on both sides would like talk radio controlled to their
liking just like they are doing with eliminating alt. newsgroups and
attempts to control Bloggers. Remember Trent Lott and others on the
Blogger issue and the Internet.
The 1st Amendmetn has many attackers. They don't do it in their own name
as it woulkd draw fire.
Know our Freedom's enemies.
