Thank you for seeing this for what it is: An attack on free speech by anti-freedom extremists.

I cannot begin to imagine why (snark off). I find that these socialist Democrats cannot wait until the day they get back to controlling everything we read had hear. I am quite sure that Hugo Chavez is their ultimate hero for his ability to do just that. I now understand why they were not happy about Saddam being disposed of because he certainly controlled all thought in his country.

I believe that Americans will never allow the control of the media that the Democrats want and will be seen for what they truly are SOCIALIST'S.

Thank you for defending our first amendment rights and I will call my congressman right now. Keep fighting the good fight.

Freedom of Religion not Freedom from Religion

We need to support Congressman Pence with everything we've got on this issue. We need to make sure the Fairness Doctrine never sees the light of day.

I've done some work with NAB and can attest to the fact that the Doctrine did nothing more than muzzle political debate. Local stations would often choose not to air an issue rather than rounding of proponents from both sides.

Sometimes conservatives win debates; sometimes liberals do. But in America, we have a very clear First Amendment right to voice our opinions.

I called my congress critter - Heath Shuler - They listened - Of course he won't know what to do until Nancy tells him.

I learned that it is the weak who are cruel, and that gentleness is to be expected only from the strong. Leo Rosten

So was the vote to chastise Move On for their ad. Both sides are wrong.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

K?

I appreciate that you and Rep. Kingston are focused on a real issue, i.e., preventing the return of the fairness doctrine. Whether Rush is right or wrong, and whether is words were well-chosen or not, is all pretty inconsequential. It'll pass by tomorrow. If the fairness doctrine returns, however, we'll be dealing with the consequences for a long time. Don't let the Democrats make that change.

As for the other high-profile posters: Don't you have anything better to do than defend Rush? Or speculate regarding whether our fighting men are dittoheads? It's not like he can't defend himself -- or that your time isn't better spent on other endeavors. (Hello, Sen. Thompson? What do you stand for, other than mom and apple pie?)

For we have a peculiar power of thinking before we act, and of acting, too, whereas other men are courageous from ignorance but hesitate upon reflection.

Although Limbaugh has done nothing wrong, we again are on the defense. I suggest we look for additional stories to bring to the media headlines. Get him off the front page. Just a thought as I cannot in my position impact this in really any meaningful way.
