She conveniently neglects to mention Inhofe’s claim that her own candidate of choice is sweet on Fairness and she’s smoking something if she thinks any part of the blogosphere has the same reach as conservative talk radio. But never mind that; this is too hot for quibbles.

Liberals claim they just want “fairness” – but if that were so, they wouldn’t limit their concern just to talk radio, the one area where they’ve been shut out (by their own incompetence, mind you – Air America, the liberal talk-radio network, was a complete fiasco). They aren’t concerned that Americans “get both sides of the story” on abortion or embryonic-stem-cell research or abstinence training. They weren’t concerned about “fairness” when Katie Couric blamed evangelicals for the death of Matthew Shepherd.
They protest that the airwaves belong to the American people. They’re right – which is all the more reason to keep grubby government mitts off of them…
Back on planet Earth, people know that we live in a world that has more outlets and opportunities for opinions to be heard than at any time in history.
