Even after almost ten years on this board I'm still at times surprised by how partisanship can cause intelligent people to act in short sighted and irrational ways. It's pretty easy to see how a fascist dictator could garner support as his followers blindly support every act.
Let me put this in simple terms for the partisan challenged: it is NEVER acceptable for our federal government to censor the news we receive in order to further the agenda of those in control. History is full of examples of the state taking control of the media and it seldom works out well for the citizens.
Yes....this is a minor example. However, the fact that the White House would attempt to censor a speech by Holland is disturbing. As disturbing as the support this action has received from the sheep out there who fail to understand its ramifications going forward should these actions continue.
