From Jonah Goldberg at NRO:

From a reader:

Jonah,

The WGN broadcast is absolutely fascinating and live on line at WGN.com

The host Milt Rosenberg, who is unquestionably an institution in Chicago talk radio, and has never ever been overtly partisan, is clearly stunned by the Obama-campaign-initiated email and phone attack on the Kurtz broadcast. He's brought his producer into the interview room TWICE to affirm that a) their phone lines and emails have been swamped with abuse, and b) that the Obama campaign was invited to participate. The producer is quoting talking points shared by the campaign.

As far as the content - there's significant evidence presented by Stanley Kurtz that Obama's been dissembling about his contact if not his relationship with Ayers. The toothpaste is out.

Wow!

There is something they are really worried about, for them to go that far.

[A. Morgan]

BUMP!

[yldstrk]

So it’s all supposed to be a whitewash,eh?

[HerrBlucher]

Can you say unhinged? Apparently any criticism of bambi is a baseless sleazy smear, despite boundless evidence supporting it. Bambi and his goons will make Stalin look like Little Lord Fauntleroy.

Liberals don’t believe in the First Amendment.

We should copy a transcript and direct mail it to every home in America, with this suppression attempt as a cover letter.

They don't want speech, but free men will not be muzzled.

[EagleUSA]

This is EXACTLY what you can expect from a radical socialist president like Obama. Pure Stalinism. Recall how Bill Clinton LIED tonight when he said Obama would “defend, protect and uphold the Constitution”??

Oh really Bill??? Here is a massive attack on free speech Billy?? Now where is your pro-Constitution Obama Billy??

What a pack of lying, radical, anti-American socialists.

Read it and weep for America if this commie fraud gets put in our White House.

Sounds like the natives are getting a bit restless.

[I see my hands]

LOL @ BHO's campaign heeding Kerry's advice and admonitions!

[gidget7]

Communism, on display, in all it;s disgusting glory.

By these standards criminals could get elected by saying exposure of horrendous acts are “lowering political discourse”. It's more than despicable.The American public deserves to have no stone left unturned.

"At the very least, they should offer sane, honest rebuttal to every one of Kurtz's lies."

Now what doctrine does that remind me of...

[TexasNative2000]

'baseless, fear-mongering terrorist smears'

"baseless" - yeah, OK, so you don't think there's a basis for the arguement.

"fear-mongering" - so you think it incites fear in the minds of some people.

"terrorist" - ?!? Terrorist? As in 9/11? Terrorist?

That, my friends, is a lie of the highest order.

[Spok]

We’re seeing the real Obama; threats, intimidation and bullying. How long with the MSM look the other way? This political style is Hitlerian.

[doug from upland]

A little sooner notice would have been appreciated. :)

This letter is laying a foundation for the Fairness Doctrine, which I imagine will be one of the first actions taken by Obama and the Dem Congress after he is elected. I also would guess that an Obama Department of Justice would go after any Obama critic with both barrels blazing regardless of how “fair” the broadcast is.

Simply terrifying.
