Cass Sunstein, president Obama’s appointee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, and the man who outlined a plan for the government to infiltrate "conspiracy groups" in order to undermine them, is in direct line for a promotion to Supreme Court Justice.

Sunstein, already in an advanced position of power in the White House as Regulatory czar, has already called for strict restrictions on gun ownership, an internet "Fairness Doctrine", and an effective ban on free speech where dissenting opinions to those of the government are expressed.


That's correct you can kiss your guns good by if that creature gets in office. The supreme court is corrupt. When Sotomayor got into power i know she was bad

It feels like the grab is picking up momentum.

These recent "gun show bans" come to mind. WA state proposing its own "assault weapons ban." The Brady bunch just rated Obama an F for his first year.

That impending doom sensation I had when he was first elected is creeping back up.

More ridiculous "what if", "maybe" fear mongering from Obama haters.
Guys, do you ever stop being paranoid that somebody is going to take your guns away? Is this a lifestyle for you?
Whatever this guy thinks, it's a long long way from him becoming a Supreme Court Justice. But why wait? Start raving now!
Infowars as a source? The World Weekly News is more credible!

I see the Crippled Epistemologist is at it again!!


Is it just me or does it seem the chess pieces are afoot?

We need a "suspicious emoticon", one eyebrow raised or something.

I never understood how requiring a for profit station to provide access for multiple viewpoints is a ban on or even restricts free speech. It no way restricts what the talking heads can say. It merely requires equal time for opposing views.

One could actually make the argument that free speech is being restricted without the fairness doctrine. As stations only will allow viewpoints which are the most profitable for them. The others will be locked out.

You said it, "it merely requires". This is a ridiculous argument that has no basis in anything other than a legislatively prescribed left/right paradigm.

I see no purpose in forcing anyone to provide equal time for the uncountable viewpoints (if we wanted to do this properly).

Do you think they would make time for the white power movement in a discussion about racial profiling? The terrorist's point of view in a discussion on the war on terror?

There is no convincing rationale for the fairness doctrine other than to continue the left/right circular arguments.

So I'm a for-profit station and the gov requires me to air a bunch of shows that have amazingly low ratings during which I couldnt give away advertising time in the name of "equal time."

Solution, air my regular successful programming at regular hours. From 1AM to 6AM air the mandated trash.

I satisfy a stupid government mandate and shows that nobody wanted to watch are still going unwatched. The only outcome is that now gov has more "control" over peoples daily lives and the guys from Girls Gone Wild will have to run their infomercials on a different network.
