I thought listening to Sen. Brownback preach to me at the debates was bad. Check this out:

Presidential candidate Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) is seeking to establish a new federal standard that would prevent violent television shows from airing on broadcast networks before 10 p.m.

The measure could prevent programs like “24” and “Law & Order,” which used to star another GOP presidential hopeful, former Sen. Fred Thompson (Tenn.), from being aired before 10 p.m., according to the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB). The group is lobbying against the amendment.

A Republican courting the social conservative vote, Brownback will offer an amendment Thursday to a financial services appropriations bill that would have the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopt measures to “protect children from excessively violent video programming,” according to the draft text obtained by The Hill.

“Broadcasters should not be allowed to use the public airwaves to disseminate violent or obscene material,” Brownback said in a statement. “The abundance of indecent material on television is one indication of the coarsening of our culture.”

Give me a break. Quit trying to legislate my life. Kids have parents to regulate their television-watching, they don’t need your Big Brother government doing it for them, thanks but no thanks. I’m embarrassed that someone like you is running for the nomination to the Presidency under the false banner of “conservative.”

Fred Thompson made another stop in Georgia yesterday in support of the Freedom Alliance concert, which raises funds for scholarships for children of fallen soldiers. Fred also stopped by the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce for a brief meet and greet. He was very upbeat and energetic, as was the crowd during the concert which interrupted his speech several times with “Run Fred, Run.” Here is what the AJC had to say about the event.

I am spending most of my bloging time working on www.ga4fred.org but I will try to keep STGOP updated with the latest news on Fred along with the other guys.
