Stop Obama's communism now!
This is just insane, Obama now wants to shut down his home towns largest radio station because they were going to air an expert on the connection between Obama and Ayers.
This is unconstitutional and an attack on our rights to know the facts and freedom of speech.
What does he have to hide? If you do not have anything to hide why would you do this?
Is this really what real Americans want is a leader who will not allow your voices and right to be heard?
As time goes by we will finally see the media covering more of the communist ways of Obama.
We have to stop this now, right now before it goes to far.
Obama wants to shut up WGN Radio
Members of Barack Obama’s campaign HQ in Chicago tried to shut down a local radio show on the City's most powerful radio signal, WGN 720, because they didn't like a conservative guest that was on going on the air to discuss Senator Barack Obama's ties to local terrorist William Ayers. This is a shocking attempt at stifling political free speech and a bald attempt to quash debate
Controlling us like rats is communism, he want to take control of our speech, our media and our lives, our way of life, our money etc. This is communism.

If that's communism, then George W. Bush is one of the biggest communists I've ever seen.
Please, take a civics course or something.

Sunshine Chick, the campaign didn't try to shut down the radio station. They encouraged their supporters to contact the station and express their dissatisfaction with the biased programming choice that they were making. There was never an attempt to cut off the signal.
How is encouraging people to exercise their right to political speech an attempt to stifle political speech? Having the right to speak freely doesn't mean that you are immune from criticism or negative reactions to that speech.

Someone tell me a majority of voters are not as misinformed as someone posting on this thread.
Please tell me that Americans are smarter in 2008 than they were in 2004.
Please. Anyone.

The right wingers don't like it when the Obama camp fights back. They just want him to sit down quietly without doing nothing while they trash and spread lies about him.

I'm desperately trying to believe they are. And, when I'm talking with friends and relatives I can believe they are. But then I come on the forum and... well, my hopefulness just sort of drains away.

What does anyone expect? Obama thinks he should be able to control everyone's speech, not unlike Bush really.
