(It's not near as moving or heartfelt as yours mi'lady, and I don't have the beloved Vietnam vet at my side anymore; so sarcasm and threats are all I have -- I hope it will at least make them think about their bottom line; I dare say that has replaced their hearts.)
Subject: It's very simple
FCC rules dictate equal air time for each candidate.
If you insist on showing "Stolen Honor" commercial free, which purports an negative-John F. Kerry spin; then you must also show a negative-George W Bush movie.
Therefore, I expect to see "Farenheit 911" immediately prior to or after you run Stolen Honor. Commercial free.
Otherwise, we'll all see you in court.
Wave Bye-Bye to your license!
Wave Bye-Bye to your advertising money!
Bye-Bye now!
