SENATOR CLAIMS: BOXER/CLINTON WANT 'LEGISLATIVE FIX' FOR TALKRADIO

All I can access at this point.

The Democrats want a “fix” for everything. They want a fix so that they never have to listen to an alternative point of view.

The war drums are beating and getting louder. The first ones to go are the ones that occupy the Capital Building.

All I gotta say is let them try. American is already enraged at the do-nothing congress (14% approval ratings) and this could further sink the Rats in 2008.

Would such legislation pass the constituionality test?

It does not matter to them. First, CFR should not have. Second, how long would it take a court case to maked its way to the Supreme Court? Take free speech off the air that long and there is no end to the mischief they could cause.

All I can think of is that all the opposition to the Amnesty Bill (that Congress tried to sneak through) generated by Talk Radio is what is driving this attack.

[Mariner]

It MIGHT pass the test if the effort was to break up syndication (going after EIB etc.) and move to "local control"...and "Minority & Female Ownership" in the best public interest, of course.

That's their tack...and where they are prevented from breaking syndication they will probably "tax" the successful syndicates in the interest of the same BS as above...and give part of the monies to NPR, the other part to minority/female/local radio stations.

Only a GOP President would stop this...I think it would pass the House AND the Senate in their current form.

It's the greatest threat to the republic since the Civil War. The precedent has truly grave implications...the official regulation of political speech by the Federal government.

Ouch!! You blew out my eardrums.

"How about a “legislative fix” for our college campi, Hill? How about allowing a little conservative “fairness” to counter the avalanche of socialist anti-American claptrap that poisons the minds of our young in academia, Babs?"

That is an excellent point.

Whenever David Horowitz attempted to address this on campuses they screamed that the right wing was trying to imtimidate them and infringe on their 1st Amendment...blah, blah, blah.

As conservatives will soon find out, you can’t sell a “little bit” of your soul to the devil.

[randog]

Would such legislation pass the constituionality test?

I remember asking the same question about Campaign Finance Reform..........

Yup.

Only a conservative president would stop this. Our current GOP president, would no doubt sign such a bill as talk radio is among the forces organizing the opposition to his amnesty bill.

Boortz smelled it in the air yesterday and had a full-blown write up on it on his site this morning. Long read but interesting, as usual.

Here’s the link to the article from today:
