I don't want Rush silenced. I want his right to monopolize public spectrum taken. Opposing views should air along with his. He should not be allowed a monologue.
He is a disease and a contagion. The antidote is sunshine and reason.
Opposing views do. Franken and Air America for one.
"He should not be allowed..." Interesting, that is a direct violation of the 1st amendment. Oh wait, it is a "public" airwave so you can stifle free speech you do not agree with. That demonstrates the bankruptcy of your position, your philosophy. It cannot withstand the attacks of those who oppose your ideas so instead of being able to counter with better ideas, you simply shut down the voice of the opposition.
You idiot, I specifically said I don't want to silence Rush. I want the monologue broken. I want his ideas challenged as he speaks. I think Limpbrow is a dangerous psychotic and hate monger, a contagion disease carrier that is infecting an easily brain-washable segment of the population to emulate and think like him, and he is tolerated on private networks because he sells products to these same imbeciles who listen. I think he is a drag on the mentality of the nation, a retrograde force of Neanderthalism. I do not think it is right that the airwaves that belong to all of us should be given over to commercial interests that are willing to destroy the fabric of society to sell a product. I want equal time while he broadcasts for voices that show us what an idiot he is. I don't want Hitler to do all the talking. He is another example of how money is destroying our country. Garbage spewing for a buck and the fostering of hate and intolerance.
By the same token I believe that all networks should fund high quality news as a part of their right to broadcast on public airwaves.
His ideas are challenged all the time. Again, Air America is but one example of a liberal talk radio program that is available to anyone who wants to hear an alternative viewpoint.
If you want to stop his monologue, you are silencing him and any others with whom you disagree. He and anyone else has an opportunity in the marketplace to provide a commodity people want to buy.
I happen to be one of those neanderthals. So thank you for the move up to idiot level. However, I can never compete with your high moral stance, too ethereal for me.
Again, I don't want to stop his speech. I want to stop his monologue. He can say whatever he wants in any detail he pleases so long as a counterpoint is present on the same broadcast thereafter. His views need to be challenged at root. And what you call ethereal I call obvious.
I'll give you that, if you let Rush do the same to Obama during all his speeches. Why should the President be allowed to have monologue? Lets have Rush/Hannity/OReilly on stage with Obama every time he gives a public speech so they can give their opinion while he speaks.
