Even that didn't compare to turning those FALN terrorists loose trying to buy PuertoRican votes for Hillary. That basically sent a message to every terrorist in the world, i.e. that America does not take terrorism seriously.

Hey Bill I was thinking of starting a Packer fan support group thread... but I don't even wanna think about it... sigh...
"And now it's time, once again, for all my Packers"... did you remember that radio skit from the not-so-good ole days?
If anybody deserves a support group, its Packer Backers.
<sigh>

And I thought the left was supposed to be anti-cencorship. Stupid me.l

LOL, Bill. I live in Nashville and am a Titans fan of course. It was more a case of the ball bouncing our way than anything else, don't you think?
An emotional film full of lies broadcast for fact just when the election is about to take place is not exactly a poster for free speech.
about as silly as me posting: "I thought the right was about pro-censorship."
I believe that no matter who gets elected the war in Iraq will change very little. This because they are building permanent military bases there and because of articles I've read telling how one great reason Bush invaded was to keep Iraq from accepting payment in euros instead of dollars. In short, the government behind the government is calling the shots here and no president will alter the course. So the issues to consider in my estimation are: Roe v Wade, the economy, job loss, safety net for the workers, health care, deficit spending/tax cuts/welfare to the rich, supreme court appointees. In these areas the Democrats are marginally best from my perspective.
All well and good edgar but larry has posed a question we should examine. Is it censorship to demand that broadcasting companies not show impartial documentaries 3 weeks before an election.
I am likening it to if Clear Channel demanded that all its stations broadcast Moore's 9/11 3 weeks before the election.
The media is in a position of power almost equal to that of the government in molding opinions. They owe it to the public to cover the issues fairly and impartially particularly in an election year. I don't care if it's Farenheight 911 or the thing against Kerry, if they show these diatribes there ought to be equal response time. The airwaves belong to everybody.
