RE: the FEC, et al

FEC chair warns that conservative media like Drudge Report and Sean Hannity face regulation --- like PACs. This was a thread or two recently

During the first few minutes of "his" show last week the guy who replaced Simpson wanted comments about the contention that racist, hateful comments by anonymous people are wrong and should not be allowed. IIRC. I was bit rattled by that voice and his referring to it as his show. I exited and I do not know if he got any calls.

Maybe I am being unfair but he appears to be the direction Cumulus is taking.

So I can see the time when "they" will try to make FReepers ID'd to prevent us from "contributing" to "hate" and the election of conservatives.

The aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue certainly know about FR:

Here's how President Obama's (at the time) head of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs and author of "Repulblic.com," Cass Sunstein, describes FreeRepublic.com as "group polarization," where people segregate themselves so effectively online with other like-minded thinkers that they create an echo chamber where the group's worst and most malevolent opinions get reinforced and strengthened. "We might want to consider," Sunstein startlingly told the Times recently, "the possibility of ways of requiring or encouraging sites to link to opposing viewpoints." He recently left the Administration to become an employee of Harvard I believe.
