Worst Congress I have observed in years. Began with Pelosi trotting herself off to Syria to have a tea party and chat with Syrian leadership.

Agreed. Pelosi bumbling around the mideast in a headscarf and Reid declaring America's been defeated set the tone for this Congress, and it's no wonder its approval rating is down around 14%.

Feinstein ought to keep her mouth shut when it comes to fairness. What’s fair about her moving contracts in the direction of her husband’s company, and his cronies, so they could make millions? What about the other companies who, because of her, never had a chance at that business?

George Bush is a Republican, he's not a conservative. I certainly wouldn't take it for granted he's against the Fairness Doctrine.

Especially after the spanking given to his and Fat Ted's amnesty bill today.

Why does the Liberal agenda get funded by the government? Why doesn’t the Conservative agenda get funded?

We’ll never know because he didn’t. Perhaps if he had vetoed it and strongly made the case to the public that the bill was unconstitutional, the congressional vote would have be different the second time around-if it was even reintroduced. But again, we’ll never know because he didn’t veto it. He tried to pass it off to courts.

A common problem with the DC politicians.

OK... as Obey is my rep. I do think that I would prefer him to Paris. Then again maybe a simple “That’s Hot” in response to a proposed bill would be an improvement over Obey’s socialist drivel...

“Flake added: “Rather than having the government regulate what people can say, we should let the market decide what people want to hear.”

Actually, no, we shouldn’t “let the market decide what people want to hear”. The people decide what they want to hear and it is up to the market to provide that in the most efficient manner.

Even rinos Gilchrest, Kirk and Shays voted for the amendment, as did many Democrats.

Listening to Radio, TV, are activities that can be avoided easily. Listening to teachers teaching leftist propaganda, however, is not. So, if they want to have ‘fairness doctrines’ in place, they should start from the classrooms, not broadcasting studios.

I don’t think a defeated bill can go to the Senate. A separate Senate bill would have to be done, and I can’t imagine any kind of success like Feinstein might think it would get.
