Yep. The fact that elected officials threatened ABC & Disney is chilling, yet the ACLU and the media don't seem to notice or care.

A caller to Drudge cited a federal law that makes it a felony for two or more persons acting under the color of authority to deny the civil rights of another person. That is exactly what Reid and the Democrat leadership did in the letter to ABC threatening their broadcast license if they didn't pull the mini-series. I hope there are some lawyers ready to jump on the opportunity.

Oh, please. There aren't enough conservative lawyers in the world to pull that off.

I wondered about that. There seem to be many civil rights violations (esp in speech) of conservatives. One recent example was the professor who got her students to destroy the pro-life crosses (?). I can't remember the details. Then there's all of the conservatives chased off of campuses by hecklers etc. They are often organized groups, intent on blocking speech. Same with those who destroy/steal conservative newspapers. Colleges seem especially bad in this area. Sorry for late reply.
