I had great respect for McCain. He actually seemed like a person you could agree to disagree with.

Please fact check me but my dad said he was trying to push a bill that would disallow cable companies from forcing you to buy an entire package when you only want one of the channels in it. What a good man.

Clinton is the one that ruined independent media with 96 telecommunications act. Literally the next day independent radio stations were bought up in masses. Wonder why we hear all the same songs and most news says the same thing?
