They are also worrying to some conservatives who fear the FCC might use its powers to remove their competitive advantage on talk radio and television

You mean because more people would rather listen to a real American speaking the truth than a marxist America hater spewing BS? Yes, I guess that is an advantage.

I don’t think the average democrat understands the ramifications of ‘fundamentally tranforming our country’.

It's a little early in the battle to be worn out, don't you think? The leftists have been waging their revolution for at least 40 years. We've got to be in it for the long haul.
Yeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaw!!!

Definition of “Ethnocentrism” is “the tendency to believe that one’s own race or ethnic group is centrally important, and that all other ethnic groups are measured in relation to one’s own.” (Wiki)
Van Jones...Mark Lloyd...Rev. Wright anybody missing?
