Any so-called Republican who votes for this should be tarred and feathered.

How expansive is the bill? Like I’ve said, Obama will never pass the “fairness doctrine,” too many liberals will recognize it as an attack on free speech. He may pass measures in the name of “diversity” or “local ownership” that will have the same result without the liberal outrage.

This bill is AGAINST the “Fairness Doctrine” so this one we want to have a “wide margin” pass
To: facedown
I’d like to see them tried with treason.

The liberals are ahead of the curve here.
They are already writing another one which will probably be a stealth amendment to another bill.
Hopefully they will get caught again.

From the article:
“Though DeMint’s measure stands a strong chance of ultimately failing, it could trigger a debate on the issue and coax senators to take a stand either for or against the policy”.
