I guess the liberals don't think their own "Fairness Doctrine" is always a useful thing

Hmmm, funny, the libs pet project, the “Fairness Doctrine”, the first thing they will enact upon taking power in three months (along with hiking your taxes, redistributing your money and taking away your guns) in order to forever silence their competition in talk radio and all media, isn’t something they seem to want to apply TONIGHT. If it’s a good thing for America in three months, why isn’t it a good thing NOW? Oh, wait, I guess forcing equal time for John McCain tonight would be counterproductive to obama. That would be bad.

We’ve got Big Oil. With all these millions flooding into obama’s coffers, I wonder if we’ll see the phrase “Big Obama” being used derisively by the media to associate him with extreme wealth, greed and lack of concern for the common folk. Oh, never mind.

****Just six days before Election Day, the purchase is one of the largest ad buys in election history and will saturate the airwaves, even delaying the previously rained-out fifth game in The World Series.

I'm sure the sports fans will appreciate that attention. After all, nothing makes a game better than political speech, yes?

I can hear you now.... "But Russian Assassin.....he boughtthis time, it is like an infommercial!"

So what if he purchased it? The hearts and minds of this country are not for sale! Legislation is not for the highest bidder! Equal time must be offered, even if it means that the TV networks lose money and their losses drive them out of business. Without equal time, at least one-half of this country is being disenfranchised. How can they make an informed decision without being allowed to hear both points of view?

And look who’s benefitting from this………….BIG MEDIA. Reaping millions in profits from selling the rights to this 30 minutes. The rich get richer.

WHOOPS!!! There goes another diaper in Colorado Springs! I can smell it now.

To be fair, McCain is forbidden by law from doing something like this. He accepted public financing.

Something that Obama supported when it was politically convenient. But now that he is able to raise $150m a month from everyone in the world, why would he do something silly like limit himself? Never mind that it was the right thing to do - it won't get him elected!
