“Conservative talk radio is far more obscene than mere porn!”

Chuck Schumer, you’ve just been outed!

Congress shall MAKE NO LAW……..*ahem* It would seem to be a joke because Congress made such a law abridging freedom of speech via Mccain / Feingold campaign finance reform law.

Chuck Schumer is just a big old screed-spewing gasbag.

In the last days, good will be called evil, and evil will be called good. If christian broadcasts of sermons are considered evil, then “good” must be given equal time to share their opinions with the world?

Look up!

From what I’ve seen so far…those that agree with Chuck-you Schumer on this issue share more than this ideology with him.

They also seem to believe that that the protection of the sanctity of marriage is a punchline and not a foundation for our future. They believe that the innocent and unborn do not merit the right to life, are are readily disposable. They dismiss REAL hate talk and call a healthy dissention of ideas not in alignment of their own as “porn”. And they call porn “art”.

And to think they also would love to see the Big BO as the leader of the greatest free-nation the world has ever known.

I don’t know about conservative radio but conservative republico-religious blogging is certainly addictive.

And every so often one has the climactic moment of shouting into the the ether, “I don’t believe that ^%%$$ said that!”

Hey, maybe it really is all about sex!

To Anlir

I know I am wasting my time but I will ask you the same question I asked Spinoza.

Could you give an example of how conservative talk radio is porn?

Oh Rostin – you mean the way the main stream news media are not monopolized? There are only a finite number of them and they are on the public’s airwaves too. Smacks of censorship to me…

Conservative talk radio is “porn”, but I’m still not in favor of regulating it.

So Rostin, if an equal number of airwaves are made available to any liberals who wanted to develop them into viable businesses, wouldn’t that suffice?

Must it be equal OPPORTUNITY, or equal OUTCOME?

The conservatives have made a go of it, at their own risk. The liberals tried and failed.

So take from the successful and give to the unsuccessful? (I started to put failures, but decided to be charitable…)

Must liberals redistribute not only wealth, but also the means of making that wealth? Is that how we define “fair” now?

Seems like the liberals could at least get their own audiences…

To Spinoza #28

Thanks for your measured response. Of course it might have helped if you gave an single example how conservative talk radio is “far” more obscene than porn.
