Now that you are on the record stating that the government didn't force Clear Channel to fire Stern, but you're glad that the government did, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that you cheer Dianna's statement believe that there's nothing wrong with the government shutting down Rush Limbaugh for talking about cultural issues.

Seriously, I don't mean to sound condesending, but you really need to think about what powers you want to take away from the people and hand over to the government.

You can't just say, "I want the government to take away the things I find offensive" without realizing that there are millions of people in this nation who find your political views about guns and abortion and religion just as offensive as you find Howard Stern.

It is not the government's role to keep you, or anybody else, unoffended.
