Team Obama continues the leftist tradition of silencing, rather than confronting, free speech. Pathetic.

The Obama campaign can go to Hell. They should stick to designing fake Greek temples, and leave free American citizens alone.

Good luck shutting them up!
WGN in Chicago is one of the biggest radio stations on the planet.

I was listening to them on Tx last night.

Here’s Milt Rosenburg’s e-mail page at the WGN website. Time to counter-flood with e-mails of support for WGN for having the courage to air the truth about obama!

Obama tactics sound like those employed in some banana republics, if true

Kurtz talked about what he had seen in the documents and it was illuminating to see where Obama and Ayers had spent the money.

Milt Rosenberg, who might be the most serious, erudite talk host anywhere in the country (psychology professor at Chicago/Yale, etc.) did talk about the Obama campaign’s email. Rosenberg has been on the air for ages, doing a staid, very factual, educational program (Extension 720)and never has faced attempted censorship like this before.

Rosenberg talked about interviewing Obama earlier in his career, describing him as a “young man with impressive speaking skills, though I was much less impressed with his thinking skills.”

Just sent the following e-mail to Rosenberg:

“I would like to thank you for having the courage to look into Stanley Kurtz’ story regarding the relationship between Barack Obama and known domestic terrorist William Ayers. Please do not back down before the threats and intimidation fostered by a presidential campaign bent on concealing the truth from the American people.”

This is what the "Fairness in Broadcasting Act" means to democrats.

Think this is juast a passing, clumsy attempt at censorship?

Just wait until Jug Ears gets into the White House Peoples Temple To The Glory Of The Obamassiah.

The Obama-nazis are doing this everywhere. Any criticism of Obama gets labeled a “smear”.

Just look at the language the Obama camp uses!

What a bunch of guttersnipes!

Did you ever see anything like that from a Republican Presidential campaign?

These punks are street thugs.

And their hysteria is showing!

What’s interesting is that Milt Rosenberg is a professor at the University of Chicago. He’s center-left—hard to categorize, perhaps even a bit center-right, fairminded, genuinely curious to know things. He’s not some lunatic fringe right-winger.

And he knows Hyde Park. I don’t know if he actually lives in Hyde Park or not, but he knows the whole neighborhood from decades of experience. So he comes right out of Obama’s backyard, so to speak. Which means he knows Billy-Boy Ayers’s backyard, so to speak.

I was very pleased to see him give a platform to Stanley Kurtz.

That the Obama folks tried to bully him and WGN is very telling. I don’t think they’ll get away with it. I don’t expect Rosenberg can be intimidated—he’s way too much of a fixture. I’m a bit surprised that the Obamaites tried it. But then again, their lawsuit against the 527 Ayers ad was also a bullying tactic that may well backfire, so perhaps they really don’t realize what’s good for them.

Or perhaps they’re desperate.

I have never seen a black Cesar.

What I find strange is that he and his wife hate whitey so why imitate them?

It would be more genuine if he dressed as a Kikuyu or a Luo king, or a Caliph, or a calypso king.

Dems continue to win the prize for stupid. By making such a big deal over this they guaranteed WGN a bigger audience then they otherwise would have had. The also now are faced with the claim they were offered a spot on the show to rebut and turned it down.

Apply the same “stupid” to the libs trying to stop the ad about Ayers from running.

It goes without saying, that if the Obamites get control, free speech will go. They will use any and every means to shut down any opposition. The Ministry of Propaganda is one of the most active agencies of any dictatorial government. The behavior of Obama’s minions in trying to suppress any speech that they don't like is a clear indication of how he would rule. It is also a clear indication that he has much to hide.

I am listening to the WGN conversation with Stanley Kurtz as I write.

I encourage everyone to listen to it and to tell your friends to do the same.

I heard of a new group that needs to be exposed-—Gamaliel Foundation.

Here is the link to the WGN podcast of the program.

“WGN radio is giving right-wing hatchet man Stanley Kurtz a forum to air his baseless, fear-mongering terrorist smears,”

I can’t believe WGN radio would be smearing terrorists.
