Savage said:The big news story of the coming decade is government intrusiveness into our lives - and Mike & Chuck, the Fairness Doctrine and wardrobe malfunctions are only the most obvious examples. You can't talk on the cellphone and drive in New York - but you can legally juggle a cheeseburger, fries and Coke behind the wheel. San Fransisco just made it a crime - a CRIME, mind you - to pack groceries in a plastic bag. NYC and other municipalities are regulating how much fat we're allowed to eat. And so forth.
Yep, I know, far afield from HD Radio, so here's the whiparound:
...and the damn government is giving SOME stations permission to LEGALLY JAM OTHERS!! Regulatory elitism!
-Spoken like a true rugged individualist from the north country. It's funny that the folks up there fall for the Republican's hook-line-and sinker for so long as their cities and towns die.. It seems to be a case of what do you hate more; Downstate Liberals or destitution.
I can tell you as a Manhattanite there is no love lost from here either. We are not amused at petty despots such as Joe Bruno meddling with our rent, consumer and tax laws in a transparent effort to pay-off political depts that prop up his dwindling fiefdom.
If the choice were mine, I'd cut-off that area at the knees, well, at the northern Westchester border and let y'all enjoy the full redolence of your chosen leaders.
and the damn government is giving SOME stations permission to LEGALLY JAM
The damn Republican government.
