Re: Internet Radio Reprieve, Sen. Clinton and Obama

I don't mean to offend, and I'm all for small webcasters, but how should internet radio rights EVER be a deciding factor on voting for president? I love AM, but there are bigger fish to fry.

My opinion....

I don't believe anybody suggested deciding the election on the future of internet radio.

As for fish, one man's sashimi is another man's chum.

I wholeheartedly agree. That's why I am amused when the complaints come in about form letters back. I would be more concerned if a personal letter came back. That would show me a lack of attention to really important thngs.

Congressional hearings for athletes and HGH, now THAT's important.

I wish somebody would explain this nonsense to me! There are laws in effect for the sale of, purchase of, and use of narcotics and other scheduled drugs; the latter which governs the illicit use of anabolic steroids. Why is CONGRESS holding hearings because some well-known athlete is alleged to have used them? Shouldn't CONGRESS be attending to the real pressing issues concerning the country?

I once heard a comedian say that the opposite of CONGRESS was PROGRESS. How true!

SSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

KY on a carpet dyk, Vax! You know FULL WELL that if they're not distracted by something petty and trivial like this, they'll spend their attention on trying out ways of making our lives more miserable/expensive/difficult/inconvenient than it already IS! You WANT them to figure out new and exciting ways of restricting our freedoms and taxing us for the pleasure?

YOU of ALL people should know this, Vax.

I know this! However, whilst I am overjoyed that they are not trying to devise ways to finance their guilty pleasures at the expense of my overtaxed arse and or trying to embolden their Schutzstaffel Waffel collectively referred to as lawyers to erode the law of the land, I'd still like to know WHY they have their attentions and ours focused on this issue AT ALL.
