The Fairness Doctrine (translation: unfairness doctrine) continues to raise its ugly head. Nancy Pelosi said just this week that she was personally for it and would even block debate on the Broadcaster Freedom Act – which would ban the return of the Fairness Doctrine. Why would you not want to finally get rid of the Fairness Doctrine if you were supportive of freedom of speech for all, including liberals and conservatives?

At a news conference on Capital Hill the Speaker was asked if she would allow debate on the Broadcaster Freedom Act. Here is her award winning answer. She said no because the interest of her caucus was in the reverse. The vote was 309-115 against the Fairness Doctrine the last time around folks. Regardless of the huge majority against this unconstitutional nightmare, Pelosi doesn’t seem to care because she is blocking this from coming to the floor for debate to find a permanent solution. It’s too bad the Berlin Wall and Communist Russia were disbanded because Pelosi could have been right at home serving there with her dictatorial style.

Its horrifying and un American enough when the vote and will of the people have spoken and a Judge with an agenda trumps that vote and rewrites law from the bench, such as the gay marriage push in California, even though the vast majority previously had voted against it. It’s even more egregious when you are the speaker, the leader of the House who is supposed to reflect the will of the people on issues reflected by the votes of the congressmen. What’s not to understand with a vote of 309-115 against the Fairness Doctrine? Obviously the masses have spoken to their congressman and want freedom of speech on the airwaves protected, so who cares about a caucus, a club, a party, a personal control battle, or any other thing? Lead and serve or get out!

Many of you may recall elements of the Fairness Doctrine they have tried to cram down our throat over the years. Don’t be fooled by the manipulative wording “Fairnessâ€
