A bit confused here, where is the no freedom of speech? CBS had every right to show the "movie" and chose to show it on another outlet which they are perfectly free to do.

If CBS pulled every program that wasn't any good, we would see a lot more of this:

Why can't babs understand this is NOT a sad day? It's a Joyus day.

Now...CBS COULD HAVE RUN IT ANYWAY but they CHOSE not to because they were afraid of the backlash... and the sponsors were afraid of losing the big bucks (that's what it was all about in the first place with sweeps week not to mention the sick efforts to smear such a great man.)

So now babs...tell me dear, just how is this a sad day?

I'm not sad. I dont' know anyone who is sad. I'm not crying and neither are millions of others out there. We are joyful and happy. Our voices were heard. Hear me ? OUR voices were heard.

CBS CHOSE (you know the NOW GANGS FAVORITE WORD) not to run the show. It's really just as simple as that. CBS CHOSE not to run the show. No one said they couldn't. We just told them we would not watch it which by the way is OUR CHOICE (that ole word CHOICE again...) seems it always comes back to bite people in the butt because while THEY like their freedom to CHOOSE they don't like it when WE exercise OUR freedom to CHOOSE.

Well, they better get used to it because we the people are taking our country back and we are speaking out and we WILL be heard. It's our GOD given right to do so and we will continue to do so AND as evidenced by the voices heard regarding the objections to the Reagan smear, we are getting strong and stronger and stronger.

It must be nervous breakdown time out there to think the people who are actually speaking out are not only being heard but being LISTENED to. LISTENED to! The time is now. We have avenues to speak with each other and learn what is happening on our own. We don't need networks to MIS-INFORM us of what is going on. We get our information real time and it's a beautiful thing to see how we as citizens all over this country are talking and will continue to communicate with each other. It's what America is all about.

It's a different world now ... one that affords us the voters and viewers the opportunity to see, know and hear what is going on for ourselves. The days of fooling the voting public is OVER. Imagine all those years we were fooled and lied to. Shame on the networks. But...the worm is turning now. Like the saying lately..."We vote with our remote." So like I said...get used to it cause we're here to stay!!!

So while babs is sad that's not surprising. She's confused and doesn't realize this was a great day because of the freedom of speech. She sees it as censorship we see it for what it is...freedom to CHOOSE.

It all backfired didn't it? It all backfired on everyone who took part in this fiasco. Try as they may they cannot bring down a man like Reagan AND....why would they want to try and smear a man in his nineties, dying and unable to personally respond and then try to smear his beautiful, frail wife as well. Double shame on CBS and everyone else connected with this piece of trash.

I think that was pretty low ...mighty low. I guess they didn't see it that way. CBS ended up doing the RIGHT thing and they know it and we know it. So, the censorship talk and the sad day talk is absolute nonsense. Silly nonsense at that. It's a great day for America!!!

Kicking someone when they are down has never been an admirable thing. This was an attack on a senior citizen. This was an attack on someone helpless who could not stand up look the creators and writers of this piece of dirt in the face and call them a liar. Doesn't take courage to do something so ugly when the person being attacked can't respond. How could anyone be proud of a piece of work like that?

However, President Reagan had all of us to respond on his behalf. Ahhh, the network didn't count on that did it? No one counted on the masses coming to the aid of this great man EXCEPT of course....the masses.

So, you be sad if you want babs. Knock yourself out with sadness. That's YOUR CHOICE, remember? Ours is to be happy and we are.

We will speak as loud and as clear as we want. It's a happy day for us and for the beatuful, loving Reagans and we are rejoicing and basking in the glory of this beautiful day for them and for ourselves.

That's what America is all about. Justice prevails!!!
