"Hillary, you really are my valentine,, you will force the right wing nutcases to vote for me HA-HA-HA, no matter which of us wins I will always reach across the isle to pass your agenda. Love, YOUR Maverick”

I have allot of problems with McCain, but one area I give him well deserved praise is him protecting us from the Fairness doctrine which most certainly Hillary or Obama will try to reinstate if elected. This is an important item where you McCain haters can’t say he is no different than Hillary. As much as Rush, Hannity, and some of the rest have criticized McCain, they should also be thanking him for their ability to still be aloud to do so.

McCAIN INTRODUCES TALK RADIO LEGISLATION

Arizona Sen. John McCain has introduced federal legislation to protect talk radio shows from the reinstatement of past rules that required dissenting voices be given equal time on their shows.

McCain and fellow GOP Senators John Thune of South Dakot and Norm Coleman of Minnesota have put forward legislation preventing the reinstatement of the ‘Fairness Doctrine.’

The Fairness Doctrine was done away with in 1987 but previously required political radio shows to offer equal time to opposing viewpoints as part of their Federal Communications Commission licenses.

A number of Democrats and liberal advocates want the Fairness Doctrine put back in place. They do not like the fact talk radio is dominated by conservatives such as Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage and Laura Ingraham.

McCain said imposing such rules would stifle free speech and there are plenty of political viewpoints in the marketplace.

All poiticians do that crap. Its part of politics.
