General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Get Rush off Armed Forces Network, and he's gone for good [View all]I don't care what he does. He is just a dude on the radio. Everyone here gives him power by having a spasm every time he says something shocking.
I care about the government dictating that a program that millions of American's listen to and that the troops themselves have decided they want is too much for their delicate sensibilities. Especially when that decision came from outside sources who disagree with his message.
The censorship comment came directly from the post I replied to as certain programs were deemed ok but Limbaugh is in a separate class that should be restricted.
In summary I could give a s@#$ if he stays or goes. I just want the decision to stay with the Soldier and not outsiders who think they know best one way or another. It opens too many doors and I think Joe is smart enough to figure it out for himself.
Last thought - as to the never served comment. For me service is a plus but if I dismissed everyone who hadn't that would wipe out POTUS, most of congress and most other elected officials and the vast vast majority of the American public.
