[Republican Challenger]

Are you NUTS? I am a journalist. The first amendment is sacred to me. That's the point. There is little if any free speech left in this country -- and you seem too oblivious to notice. It does not make me proud we are fellow Republicans.

Ok. Now, provide me with concrete, documented examples of things you'd like to say, but can't for fear of arrest and imprisonment...

The first amendment is sacred to me.

Let me quote an earlier post from you

I would re-institute a Fairness Doctrine so that fair and balanced reporting is federally mandated

So having gendarmes standing over you shoulder mandating you write as THEY please is in keeping with your love of the First Amendment?

Are you NUTS?

No.

Which is why you promote censorship by the FCC thugs?

There is more free speech now than there was before, outside of lefists at college campuses.

FCC is government. By having the FCC stick their tentacles, enforced by men with guns as all government orgs are, they are regulating speech and content.

It does not make me proud we are fellow Republicans.

Feeling is mutual. I have enough problems with the big government statists in the dems to have to deal with them here too.
