[midnight rambler]

Meanwhile legal fictions can pump as much money as available into 'the process' and THAT is 'free speech' -

This is an attempt to set up something like 'free speech zones' on the internet. Or is it an attempt to outlaw free speech entirely (except for people who have money to 'buy' it). Seems like a privatization attempt for free speech. Sooner or later we will start seeing debates to justify 'disappearing' people for doing things that are their inalienable rights to do.

This is very very bad news.

If Drudge Report is considered to be a political organization that can be censored, it won't be long until many many other sites and radio shows will also be spiked, including possibly even this forum.

I think we have to go into aggressive mode now, sad to say.

Damn the torpedoes, Full speed ahead!

Using Drudge as a high profile case has it's advantages. If they are able to censor it there they will just silently shut off the rest.
