The First Step Against the First...
Well, friends, the Democrats have taken the first step in silencing speech. Under the guise of fighting copyright infringement, the Obama administration, Democratically-controlled Congress and liberal Justice authorities have taken down over 73,000 Wordpress blogs. Instead of targeting site with actual illegal material, these liberal hacks have used Obama's new Internet-control authority to shut down entire servers forever deleting material that even they acknowledge was legal.
Conservatives and libertarian web activists have been warning about this for months. Under the guise of criminal probes, "illegal" activity and tolerance-via-censorship, Obama and his minions have made their first foray into quelling free speech. It is very simple. They find material not to their liking, subpoena the servers the material is on, search for something that can be used as grounds for shutting down a server and cut the cord. It's the easiest way to end free speech without anyone knowing.
It's a dangerous first step, one that even the "evil" Bush and his Republican cronies refused to do. How interesting the President of hope, change, honesty, transparency and tolerance happily orders this mess.
And it is yet another reason people need to be aware of how radical and dangerous Obama really is.
