We knew this was coming. We told you it would happen as far back as last year during the campaign. 
It is now official. Barack Obama has launched a full, frontal attack on conservative talk radio, and he is doing it without re-implementing 'the Fairness Doctrine.' 
But first, a bit of background.

Obama recently appointed to the FCC an officer that we have never had before in America. It is called the 'Chief Diversity Officer,' the goal of which is to make sure that on radio there is a broad diversity of opinion. 
No links. No further investigation. No background. Nothing to back it up. 
Look, I'm not a fan of hysteria by press release and newspaper article when the left does it. I have to stay consistent. 
I don't doubt this is what the left wants, that's what leftists do by nature....suppress opinion and censor. But I'm not sure this is the BIG ONE.

    That’s true but I’m wondering if they won’t be taken off the air and/or advertisers will be fined for supporting them. Everything is so unreal, I don’t feel I’m in America any more.

    And it is a battle he will lose — big time. Narcissus is beginning to obsess witih staring at his reflection in the pool — and he will soon fall in.

    I’m sure you understand my sarcasm
regarding Jimmy Carter’s “Misery Index”.
What shall we call Obama’s Index...?
