Roman for Congress - Politically Correct Speech

You all know what politically correct speech is. It is speech that is edited or dumbed down. You can't say anything to offend anyone, expecially in politics.

That was the whole idea of Freedom of Speech. You had to allow free people to say wahtever they want in the political world. You can't censor them. Many of the founding fathers said that voters had to be educated. They wanted people to find out all the information they could about people who are running for public office.

If one idealogy controls all the news media, then people will not know the truth. They will not be educated. If someone is publishing lies in the newspapers, radio, TV or the internet, then people should know where to go to determine the truth.

Liberals don't like talk radio, but where else can you find out about bills that Congress is trying to sneak through without the public knowing? What are they afraid of?

A local radio station took Glen Beck off the air and replaced him with Jerry Springer. I did care for Jerry Springer, but I didn't write the station asking him to be removed! I just changed the station. I didn't listen to him. Apparently a lot of people did the same thing and 6 months later Jerry was taken off the air. The market place determines who is successful.

The Fairness Doctrine is not fair. It is anti American and censors free speech. If liberals want to talk about opposing views, then let them have their own talk shows. Look at Air America. Why did it fail. Because not many people wanted to listen to people whining and putting down America.

We have to go back to the values that made this country great. Reagan was the last President that made us feel good about America!
