Most of this agenda isn't even a secret. It's just they spend most of their media time bashing Republicans and so little time talking about their own plans. When they do, it's all out there for anyone to see.

There's a substantial mistake in the analysis you posted: The offending sentences: "Since Democrats love the "fair" word so much, they'll try to resurrect something called the "Fairness Doctrine." How would this law work? Well, for example, a talk show host would not be allowed to voice opposition to a particular Democrat goal without finding some Democrat to go on the air to defend that goal." That's not how the "Fairness Doctrine" worked. A radio commentator could say whatever he or she wished, as is the practice today. An opposing viewpoint did NOT have to be in the radio studio at the time the opinion was voiced. All the Fairness Doctrine required was that an opposing viewpoint be given air time to respond ... at some future date. Hardly a heinous practice, is it?
