Senate Passes Indecency Bill
For the past few months, Senator Brownback has been unable to get the Senate to pass the indency bill. However, earlier this week, he finally succeeded.
How did he do it? He piggy-backed the bill onto a military spending bill. This is why it has received so little press coverage. No one noticed.
Senators were "for" the military bill so rather than taking the time to remove the indecency portion, they just passed it.
But wait, it gets worse. Senator Brownback (who lives in a mansion paid for by a religious cult) wants to increase the fines to $3 million per offense, rather than $500,000. This means that both the entertainer and the station he works for have to pay $3 mill each for a total of $6 mill.
Powell's son runs the FCC and can declare anything indecent. What gives him the right? He is President Bush's pawn.
First, Tommy was thrown in prison for a crime he did not commit. Now this. No more Cheech and Chong films are allowed on network television. The future of the Howard Stern radio show is also in jeopardy. He will most likely move to satellite radio. See XMSR and SIRI.
