BTTT and ping!
Remember: The only truly free speech is regulated, approved and sanctioned by our government.
Have a nice day. :D
He’s ducking the issue with plausible deniability.
He didn’t answer your question, did he?
LOL
Well this whole Fairness Doctrine thing freaks me out.
In Canada Mark Steyn was put in jail for a book he wrote.
Don’t believe that could happen here.. think again.
Sounds like some fence sitting to me. Like trying to be on both sides of the fence at the same time. Just voting to not fund the Fairness Doctrine isn’t exactly voting to not reinstate it.
Nope!
That’s because he didn’t sign the petition yet.
My question is.. does the Amendment he signed do anything?
Oklahoma Ping!
I have an R Congressman who is great, but I have a D Senator who when I email him he sends a response that is nowhere near what I asked about.
His responses usually look like:
"Thanks for your letter. (insert liberal giberish here) Would you like to Donate?
when was Steyn jailed?
He's not endorsing Obama...but he will vote for him.
And IMO, it appeared by his reply to you...that he's weaseling on the Fairness Doctrine vote.
You’re right I think. He’s not endorsing him but I bet he votes for him.
Democrat Congressman are so complex lol...
He wrote a book criticising muslims.
Humorist Mark Steyn, outsourced from Canada, filled in behind the Golden EIB Microphone while Rush visited the dentist. Mark enjoyed our First Amendment for a day, while up north his book “America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It” came under assault from the Canadian government for offending Islam.
» Canadian Human Rights Commission: The Right to Offend
A Muslim living in Canada charged Mark with hate crimes over an excerpt of his book in Maclean’s magazine, and filed a complaint before the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal! For Details, check out FreeMarkSteyn.com and MichelleMalkin.com.
This would be a great issue for our side to use as a club against the Dems. Unfortunately our (?) nominee has shown he is willing to curtail freedom of speech as well. Not only did he co-author that hideous legislation that GWB should have vetoed, but he even said he would support legislation that would limit negative campaigning. Almost as scary as Obama.
BTTT
“Nancy Pelosi doesn’t have much sway out here in Oklahoma. :)”
Not surprising since people in Oklahoma use their heads for thinking for themselves. Piglosi has a following of fools and deviants.
NFP
When he filled in for Rush last week he said he sat in jail for a week.
