Brilliant article by Nat Hentoff, one of my favorite writers, on how a second Obama term could end the First Amendment.

From the article:

But now, driven by the unquenchable popularity of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, and other conservative radio hosts, Democrats in Congress are intent on curbing the First Amendment, whether or not they can resurrect the Fairness Doctrine itself. An example of their passionate devotion to guarantee that we be protected from bias on the air was an exchange last November on Fox News Live between host Neil Cavuto, criticizing President Obama’s tax proposals, and Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ).

Increasingly stung by the host’s refusal to retract his objections to Obama’s urgent program, Senator Menendez, with icy concern, said: “I hope you are not one of the ones forced off the air” when the Democratic majority revives the Fairness Doctrine.
