In yet another un-teleprompted moment Barack Obama
reportedly took a turn as Information Czar
Three thoughts and a Big Finish:
First, an unexpected defense - if his point was that Republicans cannot listen to Rush exclusively but must consider other viewpoints as well, then fine.
Second, although he is long gone and nearly forgotten, for old times' sake let's play the "What if Bush had said that?" game. If Bush had said "You can't just read Paul Krugman..." libs would be leaping from tall buildings and wailing about free speech, a free press and a crackdown on dissent all the way down.
Third, can Obama be foolish enough to cite Rush as Obama Enemy Number One and then try to revive the Fairness Doctrine? Dumb, de dum dum. If it is a bad idea to get in an argument with a person who buys ink by the barrel, how smart is it to get in a verbal contest with someone that sits behind a live mike three hours a day?
Big Finish - why shouldn't Republicans listen to Rush?
