Democratic Decency
For those of you out there blaming Bush and the religious right for the FCC's recent broadcast decency crack-down, you'd better think again.
From Neal Boortz:
This reminds me of how Republicans are often type-casted as closet racists. That may have been true in the past (I don't think so, but I'd be willing to hear arguments), but don't forget that the two highest-ranking minorities ever to hold office in our government are Condi Rice and Colin Powell, both of whom are part of the Bush administration.
From Neal Boortz:
I know that many of you are fond of pinning the responsibility for the new, draconian FCC on George Bush and those evil Republicans. So ... this reminder. The FCC Commissioner who is pushing the hardest on all of this so-called "indecency" is Michael J. Copps. Copps is the former chief of staff to South Carolina's Democratic Senator Ernest Hollings, a Democrat. Hollings has never been known for his defense of first amendment rights for broadcasters. Copps is a Democrat, not a Republican.
