Jim Inhofe: “To have it purely market driven so that these kids who are out there…”

On the recordNovember 8, 2005

To have it purely market driven so that these kids who are out there, our troops risking their lives, would be able to determine what they wanted to listen to rather than having something imposed upon them. Ideally that is what I would prefer in a second- degree amendment. But in trying to accommodate a system that has worked pretty well, that criteria is acceptable to me. Let's don't talk about liberal and conservative. Let's talk about just programming. Forget about what is liberal and what is conservative. If a concept is popular enough that it has 1 million listeners, then that should qualify for consideration for our troops to listen to. That is my point.
