This is a HOLY SNOT *ping*

The MSM will still be needed to spread propaganda and misinformation. They have been practicing for this day the last 50 years.

[Major Matt Mason]

Democrats have more in store to try to muzzle conservatives. They talk of reactivating the so-called Fairness Doctrine in which federal government bureaucrats monitor radio and TV programs and rule on their fairness.

Scary stuff, to be sure. But, if the above is true, conservatives could have a field day with the network news coverage, particularly after sorry performance of the media in this election cycle. Be careful what you wish for, as the saying goes.

BTTT!

"The probe is sending chills through the ranks of military commentators, some of them decorated war heroes who share their expertise with millions of lay viewers. They see it as one in a series of moves the Left is making to intimidate and shut up its critics.

"We are seeing the dawn of a new era of the current Democratic leadership trying to muzzle free speech and the First Amendment," retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Tom McInerney, a Fox News analyst, told HUMAN EVENTS. "It may be the most invasive intrusion that we have seen in our history. There will be more of these tactics to follow."

Said retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, one of Fox's first defense analysts, "It's an affront to freedom of speech. As retired officers, we're private citizens and can say anything we want under the First Amendment. The whole thing was to explain to the American people what was going on in war and analyzing it."

Democrats have more in store to try to muzzle conservatives.

They talk of reactivating the so-called Fairness Doctrine in which federal government bureaucrats monitor radio and TV programs and rule on their fairness. Conservatives say the real goal is to kill right-leaning talk radio."

BUMP!!

It will be a crying shame when “right wing terrorists” take out FOX News.

[Dick Vomer]

Would you be willing to put this in the DIGGIT system???

Blessings,

[Balding_Eagle]

so he can start immediately letting the American people know how drastiscally our world will change if this frightwig gets into the WH

Huh. That might be a good idea. McCain and Palin haven't said anything like that yet.

[Quix]

MUCH AGREE . . .

Along with 1984; LORD OF THE FLIES; JOHN LOCKE; etc.

"The FCC has sent letters to some of the nation's most prominent military analysts -- some of them pro-President Bush and pro-war -- suggesting they may have broken the law when they appeared on television stations to comment on and explain the war on terrorism."

BTTT !

[E.G.C.]

Hi Quix,

I would prefer it if you signed up and did it yourself. If we don’t all learn how to FReep Digg like we do polls, this whole push will be for nothing. I’ll you what, I’ll split the difference with you. You learn how to post it on Digg, then ping me to the Digg link, and I’ll post a FReep this Digg!!! link to your Digg link on FR. What do you say???

[Quix]

YOUR FAMILY

Holy mackerel. I just emailed the article to a couple of people.

IF obama is “elected”, how long do you think he will be the (ILLEGAL) president? I’d say one term max!

[PhilCollins]

I know an Illinois army veteran who, last March, went to Washington, DC, with about 200 other veterans, to try to meet all of the IL congressmen. When they went to Obama’s office, Obama wasn’t there. His foreign policy legislative assistant said that, if Obama wins, he won’t quickly withdraw all of the troops from Iraq. He’ll follow the advice of the generals. He says that he’ll quickly withdraw the troops because he thinks that campaign will help him win the election.

[Quix]

You drive a hard bargin.

Please post the steps to take here and I’ll do it.

I’ve been there burying Obamabot idiocies & DIGGING conservative comments most of the morning.

We also need this one there:
