Reagan to the rescue

In the dark post-election ’08 night, comes a strong beaming light: ReaganAction.com. Just when it was most needed, Michael Reagan launched his new activist website for conservatives. Not only is it making huge waves of hope in contemporary political circles, wwwl.ReaganAction.com is energizing grassroots conservatives and giving them new reasons to believe. It’s a bonus side effect that the zippy new site is driving the “loony left” back to their antacid and the Kook-Aid jug. Look out Pelosi, Reid and Obama! Just when you thought the coast was clear, here come American patriots in droves. Americans are snapping out of it and getting ready to take back what they call “the greatest country on Earth”.

Savvy, and willing, ready and able to lead the masses back on the right road, ReaganAction.com founding father Michael Reagan is ready for the radical liberals. “They will do everything in their power to SHUT US DOWN,” Reagan warned his troops yesterday. The Liberals have long had a bead on every conservative voice in America, Reagan warns. And to prove it, they’re already boasting to the world exactly how they’re going to get rid of them. The wrongly named “Fairness Doctrine” is their poison, and they’ve already lined their victims up. “We must take action to stop them NOW, before they are able to mobilize support for this insidious attempt to silence conservatives,” Reagan says. In a well-circulated letter to Conservative friends today, Reagan writes Select here to send “Blast Faxes” to every single representative and senator who will be sitting in the next Congress, demanding that they reject the “Fairness Doctrine” in any form!. Like the vampire who won’t die, the “Fairness Doctrine” is a federal regulation requiring broadcasters to present both sides of any “controversial” issue. It was originally enforced by the Federal Communications Commission back in the days when cowboys roaming the range were not subject to land grabs from Eminent Domain from 1949 to 1987. The FCC adopted it as a regulation, but it was never a law enacted by Congress. When the rule was in place, radio and TV stations could face hefty fines if their stations aired controversial statements on public affairs without providing “equal time” to opposing viewpoints. The result was self-censorship by broadcasters who avoided politics to escape any potential government retaliation. “When this rule was dropped in 1987 under my father, Ronald Reagan, it led directly to the rise of conservative talk radio that enabled average citizens to have their voices heard across America,” says Michael. “If it weren’t for the Reagan administration dropping the “Fairness Doctrine”, we would never have heard of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Michael Savage, Martha Zoller, Neal Boortz, Janet Folger, or the hundreds of other conservative talk radio hosts that dot the land and expose the lies and misdeeds of the Left. “You might not have even heard of me!! The Fairness Doctrine comes with a catch 22 for station managers. In fact, it stifles debate. “What station manager in his right mind would air a (profitable) conservative talk radio show for two or three hours every day, if it meant he or she had to also air liberal shows as well—shows that have consistently lost money whenever they’ve been tried,” says Reagan. “Repealed by a vote of 4-0, it was concluded that the “Fairness Doctrine” had begun to inhibit political discourse, rather than enhance it. “The Democrat Congress tried to reinstate the doctrine but President Reagan vetoed their attempt. Again, in 1991, another attempt to revive the doctrine failed when George H. W. Bush threatened a veto. “Now, with Barack Obama entering the White House, and Reid and Pelosi reigning over a stronger democrat-controlled Congress, they’re going to try to shut us up again—and this time, they might succeed—unless you and I take action to stop them now, before they are able to mobilize support for this insidious attempt to silence conservatives. Canada Free Press agrees with Michael Reagan when he says: “Nothing frightens those who peddle lies than the cold hard light of TRUTH. They react to exposure of their deceits the way vampires react to having a crucifix held up in front of them.” Hope comes over the airwaves for average Americans on long, cold winter nights from Conservative radio talk shows. Given what happened on Nov. 4, Americans holding out for hope will need conservative talk radio show hosts more than ever this winter and those that follow. The Democrats will need silence to force through their anti-American agenda. Barack Obama’s transition team has already tapped former FCC Commissioner Henry Rivera, a longtime proponent of the “Fairness Doctrine” to head the team looking for the person who will soon give Democrats a 3-to-2 advantage on the Federal Communications Commission. Don’t let AM Radio die! Meanwhile, the beloved Gipper, who fought so hard to keep the “Fairness Doctrine” from ever becoming law, is probably smiling down on his fine son Michael. “Go, Michael, go!”
