Sharpton For Censoring Rush: 'Imagine The Arrogance Of Allowing People To Say What They Want!'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/22/2010 5:07:07 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Welcome to Al Sharpton's Brave New Radio World. A world in which the FCC would take a hard look at the licenses of stations that carry Rush Limbaugh. Al is outraged at the prospect that the FCC would "allow people to say what they want."

Ed Schultz has, as I've noted, been offering Sharpton a serial stage to trumpet his censoring threats, and there was Al at it again tonight. According to the Reverend, the FCC should clamp down not merely on "explicit" racism, sexism or homophobia, but also on any of those isms or phobias in their "implicit" forms. Got that? Against the repeal of DADT? Implicit homophobia! Off with your license!

Continuing his call for FCC to clamp down on stations carrying Rush, Sharpton tells Schultz: “imagine the arrogance of allow[ing] people to say what they want.”

Ping to Today show list.

Both these two f’ing idiots are too stupid to realize this ‘’censorship’’ would mean them too.

Sharpton, it isn’t racism.

Your president is stupid, naive, crooked, and a complete nincompoop.

In fact, he’s almost as bad as you, you fat Obamahole.

What a complete jerk this man is. He thinks if he whines and yells loud enough he’ll get what he wants. What he doesn’t realize is, at some point this is going to come back to bite him.

Hey butthead Sharpton.... unregulated speech is freedom of speech. Have you heard about any of that???? Try reading the constitution.
If I told you what I actually think of you I would be on your censorship list too.

No it's not. This creature got away with the Tawana Brawley hoax and is directly responsible for the deaths of eight people at Freddy's Fashion Mart. He's destroyed hundreds of other lives in his sorry existence. No one dares touch him because he's a black, democrat, "reverend" "civil rights activist."

Wow. Can you imagine “People” or any other magazine having a cover with those words on it today? The DOJ would have jail cells waiting.

It’s called the first amendment Al....the same one that gives you the right to spew your racist hate speech.

Against the repeal of DADT? Implicit homophobia!

I have a friend who is gay. He's not flaming, but he and his 'partner' have lived together for a decade or more. Knowing Jim served in the Army, I asked him what he thought of the repeal of DADT. Jim said this:

The Don't Ask Don't Tell policy, to me, was brilliant. You could still join, they wouldn't know, you didn't have to lie and you know you had boundaries. Was it perfect? Of course not, nothing ever will be. But the new law may open up cans of worms.

Jim opposed the repeal of DADT so, I guess Jim is 'homophobic".
