I'm sure that there's a reasonable explanation why the two most in-the-tank for Obama networks refuse to run ads critical of his socialistic health care plan. /s

Can’t someone sue these “journalists”?

Doesn’t seem right that they’re using public airwaves for a partisan agenda.

Here's the ad that they refuse to run, as well as a link to the organization that created it, and is paying for its run on the networks that will allow it...

Leading the Fight to Stop Obama Care

The League of American Voters

Yeah... Like ABC wouldn’t want to run a ‘partisan’ ad, that would be wrong. Devoting an entire night on their network to advocating Barry O’s plan, that certainly wasn’t ‘partisan’ – LOL

Do these people really think that people are dumb enough to accept their lame and foolish excuses?

This only serves to further damage these networks, not stop the hemmorhage of support for Obama’s plan (no pun intended.

PBS’ Lehrer wanted violence against anyone opposing.
NBC and ABC refuse ads.

Why does this not have tax and criminal implications?

ABC and NBC have refused to run the spot in its present form.

If I wasn't already boycotting them, I'd start right now.

It appears that they have forsaken their “Press Credentials”. Perhaps, if they are still afloat; the next administration will look at their licenses as carefully as this one seems to be looking at FOX.

At the end of the ad they should also state the fact that
ABC/NBC will not air this commercial....so people can also
understand that they don’t want you to see/hear/think about
what this doctor is telling you...
