I'm sure there are going to be a lot of cynical, joking replies to your post. This isn't funny. It happened before and it can happen again.

Under the old "fairness doctrine" opposing views got equal time. When stations carrying syndicated shows like Rush are forced to provide equal time it jerks them right out of profitability. So no Rush.

Dennis Kucinich would have congress pass a law prohibiting free speech on the radio airwaves. Like McCain and Feingold that makes him a violator of the First Amendment. Likewise, we'll probably all sit on our butts when this happens - just as we did with MF (MF, what an appropriate acronym).

This may very well be the most dangerous, long term, aspect of "teaching the republicans a lesson" this last election. These people require the government and the courts to mandate what they can't get the voter to accept.

I hope someone is keeping a list.
