This just keeps getting better and better. Scared out of their minds that Obama could lose the state of Pennsylvania, the Obama campaign is telling Pennsylvanian televison stations that if they show ads from the NRA about Obama’s anti-gun record the Obama camp will try to have their FCC licenses revoked.
The Obama camp has been threatening television and radio stations to keep them from airing anti-Obama ads.
The latest target is the NRA and stations in Pennsylvania.
Earlier this week, the National Rifle Association’s Political Victory Fund released a series of radio and television spots to educate gun owners and sportsmen about Barack Obama’s longstanding anti-gun record. In response to the NRA-PVF ads, a clearly panicked Obama campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are doing everything they can to hide Obama’s real record by mounting a coordinated assault on the First Amendment.
They have gone to desperate and outrageous lengths to try to silence your NRA by bullying media outlets with threats of lawsuits if they run NRA-PVF’s ads.
The Obama camp is particularly angry with an NRA ad entitled “Hunter” which lays out Obama’s record on gun control.
I guess the First Amendment only applies if you’re a liberal. You can watch the ad that really has the Obama campaign freaking out here.
