Limbaugh fights 'Hush Rush' push

Listen to this democratic Nazi who explains what he'll do if Obama is elected to office in order to silence the AM radio airwaves by installing the so called Fairness doctrine, a one sided push to silence conservative voices that only a off their rocker liberal could classify as fairness.


What an idiot, him and a few hundred others ensconced in their liberal cocoon pontificating on what's best for everyone and they will mandate it for you if you don;t agree. Now that's fairness if I ever heard it, that is during a purple microdot acid trip maybe that most of these liberals seem to be still engaged in from their woodstack days, still waiting for those flashbacks that haunt them to end.

On-the-air comments by a Democratic senator looking to bring back the Fairness Doctrine are sparking new fears the voices of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly and Michael Savage could be silenced if Democrats control the White House and Congress.

Speaking on Albuquerque station KKOB, Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., told host Jim Villanucci,'I would want this station and all stations to have to present a balanced perspective and different points of view, instead of always hammering away at one side of the political [spectrum].'

Instituted in 1949 when radio ruled the airwaves, the Fairness Doctrine required broadcasters to allot airtime for controversial public matters, as well as time for opposing viewpoints. It was repealed in 1987 by President Ronald Reagan's Federal Communications Commission, leading to an explosion in the numbers of talk shows and hosts.

Bingaman said when the doctrine was in effect, 'there were a lot of talk stations that seemed to do fine.'

Limbaugh, the most-listened to radio host in American history, blasted Bingaman's comment that there were "a lot of talk stations" before 1987.

"A hundred twenty-five radio stations talking about carrot cake recipes for the holidays," Limbaugh said. "Senator Bingaman, do you know how many talk-radio stations there are in America today? Try over 2,000 since the Fairness Doctrine was lifted, and on those 2,000 radio stations are countless points of view, from the extreme communist left to the wacko whatever it is way out on the fringe right. They're all over the place."
