  Obama's taking action against a smear campaign and you're calling that banning? Hey there, Mr. Double-Standard.

    have to do is talk shit and make enough of a ruckus that people believe it. 

    Speaking on the banning of things and restriction of free speech let's look at Sir Obama's record.

    http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0808/12816.html
    Sen. Barack Obama has launched an all-out effort to block a Republican billionaire’s efforts to tie him 
    to domestic and foreign terrorists in a wave of negative television ads. 

    Obama’s campaign has written the Department of Justice demanding a criminal investigation of the “American Issues Project,”
    the vehicle through which Dallas investor Harold Simmons is financing the advertisements. The Obama campaign — and tens 
    of thousands of supporters — also is pressuring television networks and affiliates to reject the ads. 

    OR...  http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/08/obama_campaign_confronts_wgn_r.html 
    (the above link is just a small snippet... there are much more detailed ones out there)

    The fact that Obama tried to have Stanley Kurtz thrown off the air for talking about the "Chicago Annenberg Challenge".

    "The magazine had been blocked in its initial attempts to obtain records from the University of Illinois at Chicago regarding 
    a school reform initiative called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which Obama chaired and Ayers co-founded. 

    Obama critics were quick to suggest that political clout could be involved in seeking to protect Obama from embarrassment.
    The school later reserved its position and made the records available Tuesday."

    So first they have the University block access to the files. Then they threaten, flood and go after the radio station that will give Stanley
    a stage to talk at. BRAVO!!! Way to go!

    At least the Radio station offered the Obama campaign to come on the show to discuss/refute what Stanley says (The Obama 
    campaign declined. 

    The ones throwing shit at Palin don't provide that opportunity. While Stanley Kurtz and the Ad campaign (correct or incorrect)
    stated info based on Obama's past associations the shit thrown at Palin is pulled out of thin air. 

    Funny thing is, Palin isn't running to the DOJ or sending out mass Emails telling people to wreak havoc.

    Sincerely,
    Me

      I dont see how you can judge a person  on the basis of when they first got their passport .
      Also she didn't ban any books  whilst she was Mayor she just ............

      "Palin herself, questioned at the time, called her inquiries rhetorical and simply part of a policy discussion with a department head "about understanding and following administration agendas," according to the Frontiersman article."

         I abhor these Left Wing smear campaigns, they are dishonest , deceitful and they distort the democratic process .

    Competition is a barbaric, insensitive ritual that reeks of social Darwinism.
    We cannot allow the fittest to survive on our pages. Your loss is someone
    else's gain, and your gain is someone else's loss. Therefore, losers contribute
    to the society and winners take away from it. Being a winner is unethical, while
    a society of losers is happy and striving as a collective. In the spirit of diversity,
    inclusiveness, and collectivism our contests shall have no winners.
    Everyone is declared a loser, which in our book means an ethical team player.
