Fwd: RE: [SPAM] Senate Liberals Move to REGULATE MUSIC

Guess what people?? BIG GOVERNMENT SENATORS in the Senate want to extend their tentacles into the MUSIC YOU LISTEN TO!!! Senator Allen Franken (D-MN, former SNL head writer & notorious New York Liberal Jew) recently attempted to tack a nonbinding “disappearing rider” onto Senate Bill 1495* that would have represented a blatantly UNCONSTITUTIONAL INTRUSION into your personal freedoms. The provision would have allowed the Feds to arrange a time with you TO BREAK INTO YOUR HOME, carefully leaf through your vinyl, & INSPECT** ANY & ALL 10- or 12- inch records in your PRIVATE record collection (7-inch records would be exempt in most cases).

Under the provision, if they had found ANY of the vinyl to be worn, substandard, discredited, or FLAT-OUT UNPLAYABLE, they would have had the authority to REPLACE IT with a remastered Compact Disc edition of Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band’s Night Moves (1976), or, upon demonstration of reasonable cause, a 120 gram vinyl pressing of Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring (1944). Agents would also, on a case-by-case basis, have the authority to make recommendations for subsequent purchases.

While the proposal was only mentioned in an off-hand & partially inaudible conversation between Sen. Franken & Sen. Feinstein (D-CA) at a dinner at top D.C. restaurant Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, THE PROVISION ALMOST MADE THE FINAL BILL!!! Senators Franken, Feinstein, & all the other RADICAL LIBERALS in the Senate must be STOPPED before WE AMERICANS lose the right to listen to the music WE CHOOSE (including Ted Nugent, “The Boss,” Phil Collins, John Mellencamp Cougar, Sting, and MANY others).

Please forward this to ALL AMERICANS who value their CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS!!!

Additional details available at http://www.bobseger.com/. Note that no upcoming tours are planned at this time.

*The Service Dogs for Veterans Act (S.1495), which was signed into law on October 22nd. The bill creates a pilot program to evaluate the benefits of using service dogs to help treat veterans with physical or mental injuries.

**”Inspection” includes the playing of your albums on a high-quality Hi-Fi. If you do not own one, a suitable one will be provided for you. Listeners who meet certain criteria laid out in regulations will be allowed to keep the top-quality stereo after the Federal Vinyl Record Inspectors vacate your home, residence, property, garage, or rec. room. Listeners may also be entitled to a tax deduction representing the fair market value of any imperfections in the original recordings.

    It is disturbing to see this level of disrespect for rational discourse. Certainly, one may take issue with elements of this post. But it is important to abide by the tenets of reason and deliberation.

  5. "While the proposal was only mentioned in an off-hand & partially inaudible conversation between Sen. Franken & Sen.

Get a life!!!

  6. I have a question. If this pilot program was signed into law, then why am I being denied access with my service dog, for PTSD, into the Salt Lake City, Utah, and the Pocatello, Idaho V.A. hospital, and clinic. The Pocatello V.A. clinic is under control of the Salt Lake City V.A.
