" In God We Trust "
Fairness Doctrine
Before Nancy Pelosi turned out the lights and skipped town for a five-week paid vacation--compliments of U.S. taxpayers, MRC Action Team members got the final word on the so-called "Fairness Doctrine".
On Thursday, and Friday, the MRC delivered more than 192,000 petitions to eight key members of Congress--including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has made it clear that she is in favor of government censorship of the airwaves.
In addition to those petitions, the MRC also delivered petitions to twenty-two other key Congressional offices--from citizens withintheir individual districts!
The sheer volume of petitions was so overwhelming in fact, they caught the attention of the Capitol Police who became alarmed over the many boxes being delivered to Congressional offices!
If the police were concerned, imagine the impact and increased pressure they had on the individual Congressmen who received petitions from their constituents--demanding
to know where they stood on this vital First Amendment issue?
Thanks to you, we've put Congress on notice--letting them know that we won't sit silently so long as the threat of government censorship looms.
In fact, over these last several weeks, we estimate over 400,000 Congressional contacts were made by Media Research Center Action Team members through phone calls, faxes, and petitions!
As Rep. Pence reported, a number of members in Congress are feelingthe pressure--torn between the people they supposedly represent,and Nancy Pelosi's gag order...
Yes, we've rattled some cages, and I fully intend on rattling some more when Pelosi and her cohorts attempt to re-instate the "Fairness Doctrine".
I say "when", because silencing the likes of Rush, Sean, Laura and others would remove the last, and greatest obstacle in their liberal push to incorporate their radical, socialist agenda on the American people.
But thankfully, because of people like you, and your eagerness to answer our call to action, they are in for the fight of their lives!
Thank you for your outstanding support!
YOU DEFINITELY MADE A DIFFERENCE!!
