When Marxism Meets Freedom

Marxism cannot survive a free press ... When the two clash, the results are always the same -- The Marxist try and shutdown any dissenting points of view. After filing two legal briefs trying to get the Bush Justice Department silence a critical 'Ayers' add, now they are after Stanley Kurtz. Just like the Nazis and Communists in Red China, all freedom of the press must cease.

Obama campaign confronts WGN radio

Sen. Barack Obama's campaign organized its supporters Wednesday night to confront Tribune-owned WGN-AM in Chicago for having a critic of the Illinois Democrat on its air.

"WGN radio is giving right-wing hatchet man Stanley Kurtz a forum to air his baseless, fear-mongering terrorist smears," Obama's campaign wrote in an e-mail to supporters. "He's currently scheduled to spend a solid two-hour block from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. pushing lies, distortions, and manipulations about Barack and University of Illinois professor William Ayers."

Kurtz, a conservative writer, recently wrote an article for the National Review that looked at Obama's ties to Ayers, a former 1960s radical who later emerged as a school reform advocate in Chicago.

The magazine had been blocked in its initial attempts to obtain records from the University of Illinois at Chicago regarding a school reform initiative called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which Obama chaired and Ayers co-founded.

Obama critics were quick to suggest that political clout could be involved in seeking to protect Obama from embarrassment. The school later reserved its position and made the records available Tuesday.

On Wednesday evening, Obama's campaign urged supporters to call the radio station to complain.

The ones who will be really threatened with all this blatant anti-First Amendment attacks is the drive by media -- What have they to say ... crickets.

You would think the party of the KKK would not want to go there again.
