Senate OKs DeMint's Fairness Doctrine Ban

The Senate on Thursday overwhelmingly approved an amendment banning reinstatement of the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" that would threaten conservative talk radio.

Republican Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina attached the amendment, called the Broadcaster Freedom Act, to a bill giving the District of Columbia a voting representative in the House. It passed by a wide margin of 87-to-11....

...DeMint said: "We need to make it a law that the FCC or this Congress cannot implement any aspect of the Fairness Doctrine."

I like it.
Comparing their "deficit increases" with the current administrations are not even comparable. How long has Obama been in office and run up a trillion dollar plus bill? Furthermore, how many people will actually see the benefit of this spending other than frisbee golf players?
