Perhaps the Political Suicide Club Conservatives might want to consider this. In all the political wet dream fantasizes that "Conservatives win by losing" what do they think happens to their slim chances of taking BACK the Congress if the Democrats follow up this with a reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine?
The Fairness Doctrine would totally destroy Conservative Talk Radio. Without talk Radio the Conservative ability to win the Congress back goes from slim to nonexistent. This wacko wild butt guess that by losing the Congress the Republicans would be "forced" to more to the right is the dogma of political Know Nothings. This "idea" shows a complete ignorance of the powers of incumbency and the very real damage Democrats could do even if by some miracle they only held the Congress 2 years.

Democrats Call on News Networks to Balance Stories TVweek ^ | September 13, 2006 | Ira Teinowitz

Top Democratic congressional leaders are complaining to network and cable television news executives that the networks are giving the party short shrift in national security stories.
"Until now, there has been a complete absence of balance in the news coverage of national security issues," House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said in letters sent yesterday to top news executives at NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox News Channel and CNN.

What all have they talked about on the 4th hour? What's Snerdly look like? Anyone got a screen capture?
ANyone know what kind of car Rush is getting?
Have a great weekend Roc
Tancredo only has Border right now but that's big. He is a big supporter of the war and taxes and conservative Judges though. If he starts making that clear that can make a difference. Also, the boder is widely underestimated as an important factor. 80% of Americans polled want a seriously controlled border and real immigration reform and no amnesty. All Americans, not just conservatives. I think a candidate who is strongly conservative and known for his border strength and immigration comments might be just what the Dr. ordered to put the Democrats on their heels in '08.

It's a great honor to help you celebrate your special milestone! I am a Charter Rush Newsletter subscriber-- Still have my Oct 1992 Vol 1, Number 1 and its envelope. There is an interview with Charlton Heston, and Stupid Quotes. Here is one of my favorites:
"I have a brain and a uterus, and I use both"= Rep Patricia Schroeder "I have a brain and a p3nis*, and I only need to use half of each" --Rush(viewer discretion advised on page 1)
See you on the Senate Midterm threads! RobFromGa
The real question is; did Hillary get the ring? =8O
it's not my homepage. I have only met Hannity, Boortz, Frum, -- I'm still waiting to meet Rush.
I did also get to meet Jim Robinson, and Buckhead and many other Freepers, including a lot of the DC gang.
He just likes to be a contrarian-- he lobbied for a couple of weeks to try to get Cynthia McKinney re-elected on the logic that she is so awful that it is good to have her in Congress.
WoW! Lots of involved people in the thread today! :) If the GOP was doing so bad and things were so horrible, would conservatives now be depressed and not excited about getting active and involved and posting and participating. :)
thank you!
thank you very much....
