Censorship is alive and well on the left…

I already posted about this “conversation,” which at the time I thought was over. It’s funny my post pinged back to that site, to which they responded “thanks for the traffic…” an obvious attempt at a jab at me. Well, far be it from me to live in delusion, so I posted what I thought would be my last comment, which read precisely thus:
“Traffic?…now THAT’S a good one.”
An obvious jab at myself, invoking comment #28 in this new context, for all the traffic my blog generates (notice all the ads and stuff on my site and take a guess how much I care about generating traffic).
Sadly, I didn’t screen capture it and the site decided to censor it, obviously because of the offensive language. So it’s gone forever. I would have let that slide, but then, one of those brainiacs over there stole my joke! (see comment #34)
If you’re going to censor me, that’s one thing; but to steal my punchlines and pass them off as your own…that’s just plain weak. Geez…grow your own wit, morons!
Just prior to that (comment #33), one of them who I called out for making accusations without proof (”Bush lied, people died”) posted another comment with her “proof” of the Bush administration’s lies that led us into the war, transcript of Dick Durbin on the senate floor suggesting an independent investigation into intelligence failures. So I read it and commented back to her about it. This time I was smart enough to capture it here. (Interesting to note that she cited this transcript not from the official Congressional record, but from the Foundation of American Scientists site, a decidedly left-wing “scientific” organization.)
But, alas, go check out that thread now. My comment is conspicuously absent, which just goes to show you: liberals are all about free speech…for them. Just like they’re pro-choice…for them.
The ACLU would be so proud of them.
UPDATE: Aug. 15, 2007, 8:09 PM (MDT): The ping-back that was sent to the morons’ site relating to this post was just removed in keeping with their “only liberal voices allowed” policy.

[…] UPDATE (6:56 PM): In a stunning development, the ping-back from this post to the idiots’ post linked above was (*shocked gasp*) removed by the “editors!” Unbelievable! Liberals manipulating reality and shutting down the opinions of others? Unheard of! […]
