Religion in America

IN Colorado a monument was erected to remember the soldier of WW 1.
A large cross was part of the display. The parks department did not object.
A Buddhist temple wanted to erect a Buddha there for the same reason
The Govt. Parks department turned them down. Now is that right?

1984-Governments putting GPS systems in cars

In Oregon, North Carolina and a few other state Governments are considering installing GPS systems in cars to let the Government know the miles driven, roads used, and times a person drives their cars.

Think of it you would drive your car and when you get gas the GPS systems would determine the tax you should pay for Road usage.

We must stop this immediately. Do you want Big Brother seeing where you drive (roads used) How far you drive (mileage) and times you drive? This is none of their business.

We pay Income Tax, Home Tax, Sales Tax, and yes tolls on some roads. Now the Government wants to tax us on Road usage. these roads have been built with our tax money and we have a right to use them.

How long will it take the Government to start watching where we go and when. This is not just a new tax, it is spying on American Drivers.

Write to your Senators, Governors and congressman and say NO to Big Brother recording where we go. This is just another frightening offshoot of our High Tech society.

We all complained when the Bush administration was listening to our phone calls and watching for key words in our E Mails. Now the Government can watch where you go in cars.

Keep Government out of back seats. How would you like to be followed by a Government vehicle every time you went out in your car. This is the same thing.

.Write and call your representative now.

THE FAIRNESS DOCTRINE.

In Central Florida, where I live, there are 3 talk radio stations. They are Clear channel and Fox affiliate. In the morning there is Glen Beck, In the Afternoon Rush, and on the drive home Sean Hannity. I enjoy talk radio when driving in my car. I am not happy that all I have to listen to is Conservative Programs. I have called to voice my opinion a few times.

Do we need to pass a law (the Fairness Doctrine) to get the Liberal side of politics today.

I feel that would be Government interference in the Free Speech area of talk radio.

I am against the Fairness Doctrine because that would create a Police Force to watch what is said on the Radio Waves.

I not happy that these stations do not have liberal commentators. I have called them to ask for Liberal Commentators be included in their programming. We who are more to the left should contact these stations and urge them to include Liberal commentators. If we all do this then the stations might listen.

Cable News, on Television, at least has 2 stations that are Left or Right. There is Fox News that is skewed to the right wing conservative and there is M.S.N.B.C. which is skewed to the right wing liberals. I would like to see this happen on in Radio News Stations. Contact the stations and call for Liberal Commentators, Air America failed because it had to start its own station.

Bringing a Government Police Force, to regulate what can be said, is not the answer.

the Radio waves are not the property of the citizens the Air is. Radio waves are created by the broadcast towers of Radio stations at great expense.

I would only ask the Conservative commentators to not bully people who call in and let them finish their thought before hanging up on them.
