Sadly, lol. It was a scary statement. What kind of Executive order could he do that would take Rush off the air?
Fairness Doctrine
Maybe shutting down the radio station under some obscure rule hidden in the Patriot Act.
If Rush is afraid of being shut down we are in deep, deep trouble. The clash of the titans is coming soon.
Pick any national emergency.
After all, Rahm Emanuel says never let an emergency go to waste...
>>>What kind of Executive order could he do that would take Rush off the air?
Wouldn’t need an EO. All he has to do is name Rush an enemy combatant and he can hold him in a South Carolina brig for years.
Some jack bauer types show up at Rush’s Palm Beach home and hustle him off for an all expense vacation at GITMO?
And no word left.
The Fairness Doctrine doesn’t need legislation. It would be implemented thru the FCC, an executive branch. The head of the Executive Branch, i.e., the POTUS, i.e., Barrack Obama, needs only to order the FCC to implement the Fairness Doctrine.
The BC issue has run its course; it’s over. We should no longer let it distract from viable issues.
