I have finally made the ultimate decision. I called my cable company (Comcast) and had them disconnect my TV cable. My monthly bill has risen to $70.00 and all I get is crappy sitcoms and slanted news. From now on I will get my news via Free Republic and spend my free time reading or on the computer. To hell with TV!! I'M FINALLY FREE!!

I feel the same way you do. I just don't understand why conservatives are not getting together their money and resources and start our own cable, news, Hollywood, and other stuff instead of whining about the existing television. Why couldn't it be done?

"I called my cable company (Comcast) and had them disconnect my TV cable."

It will take some time to adjust, but you will be rewarded in the long run. I discontinued cable TV service eleven years ago and have no regrets.

My remaining objection to conservative talk radio broadcasts are the network news breaks at the top of each hour (SeeBS News in my listening area). I find myself lunging for the dial to turn off the CBS liberal lies at the top of each hour. I’ve often wished my radio had programmable mute periods each hour to eliminate objectionable content. I believe a clever inventor could successfully market a radio with that feature.

You're a hero in my book. The same thoughts have been wanderin around in my mind.
My name is John Doe and I'm a tv news junkie.
But the very thing that makes me a junkie is about to cure me of it.
