Disgusted Republican says Can Condi

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

Condi Rice supports torture and then lied about it. 

Here we go again.  Major news stories get published with very little reaction from the general press.  It’s been revealed that the very top officials of the white house held specific meetings detailing and authorizing torture by the US gov’t.

This is just one more example of what should be a nail in the coffin of this administration.

When was this topic raised in last nights debate?  Where do Hilliary, Barack, & McCain stand on this issue?

If you want to way in on this issue, here’s a great way to get your voice heard.  Just go over to  http://www.CondiMustGo.com and sign the petition or leave a comment there.

We the People must speak out now, not in November or never.  We must speak out NOW.

Disgusted Republican on Media Ownership

Monday, March 10th, 2008

Disgusted  Republicans and everyone else can listen up.

Now is your chance to fight back against the heavy handed FCC.

Commission Chairman Kevin Martin pushed through a new rule in December, 2007 allowing big media conglomerates to own multiple outlets in the same market. Although he framed it as a limited rule, the fine print says otherwise.  And the FCC regularly allows exemptions to the rules.

We the people can fight to protect democracy.  In this case, you need to call your Senators and urge them to support North Dakota’s (D) Sen. Byron Dorgan’s “resolution of disapproval.” This legislation would roll back the new FCC rule that allows cross-ownership of owning a newspaper, television station and radio station in the same market.

Where public opinion was voiced at public meetings, the overwhelming  consensus was against media concentration and yet, the FCC led by Kevin Martin went right ahead and implemented the rule change. It’s own studies to the contrary were ignored.

So, call your senators.  Urge them to repeal this FCC rule.  Further gutting of our Democracy must be resisted.  Stay informed.
