We know how Customs is trying to go after knives, but another issue is also hiding behind the fake "Flu pandemic".
I just got this E Mail
Thomas,
Confirmation hearings are about to begin for a new FCC
Chairman that could pose a grave threat to conservative
speech. Please see the message below from our friends at
the Media Research Center who are taking proactive action
to protect and preserve our Free Speech Rights.

(Formerly Grassfire.net Services)
+++++++
After months of delays, we've just learned that the Senate
Commerce Committee will hold a confirmation hearing this
coming Tuesday, June 16 to consider President Obama's pick
for FCC Chairmain, Julius Genachowski-a strong proponent of
"diversity" in the media.
Thomas, as we've previously explained, diversity in
broadcasting is an even more insidious attack on Free
Speech Rights because it empowers the government to censor
and control the airwaves through backdoor policies that
could be expanded to include television, newspapers and
the Internet!
++ The Timing is Perfect for the MRC Action Team to Respond!
The timing of this hearing couldn't be more perfect!
Over the last two weeks, MRC Action Team members have buried
Congressmen beneath an avalanche of hundreds of thousands of
petitions, faxes, and calls - each demanding our Free Speech
Rights be protected and preserved by bringing the Broadcaster
Freedom Act to the floor for a vote.
We've made it clear to lawmakers on Capitol Hill that we won't
be bullied or intimidated into silence.
Now, we need to focus this message like a laser on the Senators
that will be questioning Mr. Genachowski next Tuesday. We need
them to ensure that he will not threaten conservative speech
if he is confirmed as FCC Chairman.
It's vitally important that Mr. Genachowski hears your voice
on Tuesday, Thomas!
++ Petition Delivery to the Senate Commerce Committee Next Week!
On the day of the hearing, the MRC will deliver ALL of your
petitions to both the chairman and the ranking Republican
of the Senate Commerce Committee-again sending notice that
we will not stand silent while liberal lawmakers plan ways
to silence the conservative voice!
Thomas, with the meeting scheduled for Tuesday, June 16,
we have a very short window within which to act...
That's why are asking you to do two very important things right
now. First, take a moment to sign our petition and join the
nearly 400,000 citizens who are standing for Free Speech Rights
in America.:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?u=19627&RID=20742578Then, after signing the petition, forward this message to 30-35
friends- urging them to stand with you in defense of our Free
Speech Rights by clicking here now:
http://www.grassfire.net/r.asp?u=19627&RID=20742578Every petition that is signed between now and noon on Monday
will be added to the nearly 400,000 we already have and presented
directly to the Senate Commerce committee leadership!
If not for the intense grassroots outcry against the return of
the so-called "Fairness" Doctrine, liberals in Congress would
have already moved to put it back into place--effectively
silencing free speech on the airwaves.
We cannot allow that to happen, and we are counting on your
help to stop it!
Thanks for your defense of Free Speech and your outstanding
support of the MRC.

P.S: With the Genachowski confirmation hearing coming up on
Tuesday, the MRC is looking to make a strong final push in our
fax initiative to Congress. If you haven't yet scheduled your
personalized faxes to Congress urging them to bring the
Broadcaster Freedom Act to the floor for a vote, please
do so right now by clicking here:
