Oh, I understand.

My point was currency has no speech rights.

About as much right as you have using a private enterprise such as talk radio to call in your views. If they want them, they will put you on. If not, they will not allow you to go on the air.

And isn't interesting the cries of censorship when one of our favorites gets canned.

McCain Feingold was campaign finance reform. Money. Besides, didn't President Bush allow it to become law? There wasn't much flack for his complicity. And wasn't it upheld by the Supreme Court?

Seems the Swift Boaters got their message out pretty effectively against Kerry. Seems Moveon.org did pretty well against President Bush.

And no one has denied you from speaking your thoughts. You can still go anywhere you like and say whatever your message is.

Your comment was this:

For that matter, talk radio squelches free speech on a daily basis with screeners and the hosts ability to unplug the caller and yet continue as if the caller was able to respond.

There is no right to free speech on talk radio.
