Should Obama appoint a "Minister of Truth" to keep Conservatives from speaking.?
Should he appoint a person to be in charge of what the media can say. That way those evil conservatives couldn't spew their lies and effectively steal another election. If he does should he make this post a lifetime position and allow that person to choose their own successor so that if the side chance we ever allow another republican in office they will not be able to change the peoples media.
I am a libertarian and I just asked this question to feel out a reaction to how crazed the far left can be and most of the reactions were what I thought they would be.

The difference is not the sin. Love the sinner, hate the sin. The point is, when the sin becomes the lifestyle choice of the pastor, they are not in a place to lead other Christians. That sin then defines the person, rather than simply a person committing a sin. We all sin at some point, of course. A man who is gluttonous, or say, obese, eats a lot This a sin. But it is not so much a lifestyle choice as it is a habit. Being gay is not a habit. Being a pedophile is also a lifestyle choice. Thus why pedophiles are not allowed to be pastors, either (theoretically, unless you're a priest...) It is more the lack of repentance involved with leading this lifestyle. A gay man who is happily and openly gay is clearly not repentant of his lifestyle and is thus not fit to lead others Christians. A fit pastor is one who is repentant of all his sins, the ones he is aware of as well as the ones he is not.

The Fairness Doctrine obama proposed in acting while campaigning failed miserably in the senate at the end of February 2009 .thank goodness ,Limiting speak no matter how its proposed would have been a giant step towards communism. Now they just go after Rush personally

They tried that with the 'fairness doctrine'. But the American people saw it as limiting 'free speech' and nixed the idea.
Now Obama and congress are re-issuing the (un)'fairness doctrine' under a new name and will accomplish what you are advocating but without the people knowing what is happening!

Minister of Truth, that is amusing. Minister of Lies now that I could see Obama doing, since his whole presidency is nothing but lies and deception
- RawrzImoLv 51 decade ago
That would go against the Constitution. Besides, Obama seems to be a different sort of president and I don't think he really cares if the conservative media wants to spread lies because he's just doing his job and we'll all see the truth eventually.

No, he loves when Conservatives speak. They continually embarrass themselves. There's no better advocates for keeping Obama as President than listening to the alternatives' positions.

no, because such an office would make the USA become as dictatorial as Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, most of Africa, China ....
