This is just so outrageous it just makes my blood boil! I hate these people, these Marxists, that are destroying this country.
I love my freedom. And, I refuse to live like I'm in a third world nation.
I can't sleep at night because of what they are doing to our country.
They can put me in jail. I will not give up the fight. I'll do it for my children and three lovely grandchildren. These people simply must be defeated, by whatever means.
I fear we are headed for another civil war. I never thought I'd see the day when Americans actually were forced to take up arms against their government; but I'm afraid that's what's coming — and I don't even own a gun! I haven't fired a weapon since a few Navy friends and I went out into the back country in the late 60's and shot at cans! I wouldn't have a clue how to handle one, without training! But I might have to learn.
Dude your status says "Fox leads, others can only bark". If you turn the propaghanda-laden news off every once in awhile, you will see that things are not so bad. Just calm down a little. It will be ok.
Yeah, scary. Because this is only one thing this administration is doing to try to control us, the media and everything else it decides needs controlling. I do not need my life controlled by the President and his administration, who I do not feel have my best interest in mind. Freedom of speech is a freedom, not to be taken away because someone doesn't agree with the president. When you mess with our rights and freedoms, that is taking away what America was founded on. It is what we fight for, what are military gives their lives for. So yeah, I'm scared.
Yep, and the Bush Administration went after people who produced sexually-explicit movies that they didn't like. I see a lot less censorship from the Obama Administration than I did from the Bush crowd.
The idea that Republicans are great defenders of free speech is an absolutely joke, in my opinion.

'We better not see you on again,' the strategist says he was told by a White House official. The White House communications director denies that officials urge such a boycott.
At least one Democratic political strategist has gotten a blunt warning from the White House to never appear on Fox News Channel, an outlet that presidential aides have depicted as not so much a news-gathering operation as a political opponent bent on damaging the Obama administration.
I'm not sure I see the "big difference". As I already said, I got in trouble for speaking up at a city council meeting as an employee of a public agency. I found out it was perfectly legal to reprimand me for doing so.
Many companies do not let you speak outside of the company policy/ even when you are on your own time (you are always representing the company in your daily life). Some even have a punnishment/termination clause if you do not 'identify' yourself on blogs, forums and other social media sites (aka use a alias).

let's face it, both parties are against free speech when it affects them.
the democrats don't mind pornography as long as they can tax it :
Senators seek Web porn tax - CNET News - 4:11am
Nine Senate Democrats want to levy a 25 percent tax on porn sites' revenue, but legal scholars say the idea violates the First Amendment.
Jeez, this may be a first. Democrat consultants fear tutu much White House retaliation. You gotta be on your toes be a Democrat consultant or risk being ostracized by the White House. Wonder how the House Dems were threatened since just last week it was all about the cost and now all of a sudden it was only about abortion.

I don't know about you, but I see a huge difference between sexually explicit movies that exploit women, and someone in government going on a news station and talking about current issues in the U.S.
And whether you are Republican or Democrat, you should be an American first. Since American was founded on freedoms, taking those basic rights away is the real threat. And that is what this administration is doing, slowly but surely.
