It's not an infringement on free speech unless the govt does it; otherwise it's just the right of the employer to present the message he wishes.

Did a Google on Lenin statue. Came up with this article. America Won

Read about the idiot in Seattle that mortgaged his home and placed a financial burden on his family to retrieve a statue of the father of the Soviet Union. Idiot in Seattle

Here is KIRO's message board where you can tell 'em what you think. Make sure you call 'em on Monday too.

KIRO lets hear you say there is no bias in the media. Kind of gets stuck in the roof of your mouth like peanut butter doesn't it?

Tsk. I'm shocked. I thought CBS was in the free speech business!

The first casualty of Rather-Gate. Somehow, I don't think this will help their image.

Well, I hope some conservative talk radio station, or one that tolerates a conservative point of view on some of its programs, picks up the slack here and offers this guy a job. We've got to take care of our own, especially when they get shafted bigtime by the likes of CBS and its affiliates.

If someone with radio talk show connections sees this, and can do something, or can hook this man up with potential employment from a conservative point of view, I hope you act upon this suggestion. We need as many honest and forthright conservative voices out there on the airwaves as we can get.

Brian was is not a bad guy. The station has a couple of others that are not horrible, Dori Monson and Peter Weissbach. They have one, Mike Webb, who is a hate spewing homosexual activist.

I like Peter and Dori, but in view of the revelation that they are muzzled, while Webb is free to accuse the President of treason and worse, I am taking KIRO radio off my list of stations. I could rationalize my listening by thinking that they were presenting diverse views.

I guess I found out that is a lie.

It's a defeated Soviet Submarine. Everytime I see it, I thank Ronald Reagan.

This does show how bigoted and intolerant the left really is. They do not believe there should be any dissent with their positions. If you disagree with them, they will shut you down, or gag you.

Hey!

What do you think about finding a halloween mask or just a large pic of Kerry's face and putting it on the statue?

I had never seen your FR page before, I love your sign about the fire season.
