Is Free Speech Doomed in America?

I actually have a friend that is afraid to read my blog anymore. She believes that the government is NOW watching us. . . .

WTF?. . . .That makes ME want to continue my blog and speak out even more. Most bloggers aren't journalist, but we see things, make our comments and share with others. You need to do your own research and come to you own conclusion, but blogs are just another source of information.

Here's what my friend doesn't understand. . . .the government IS watching you and me and I believe that only people that are willing to fight back against them are going to be able to stop this madness. We do blogs, we go to rallies and we call our representatives. I refuse to sit back and shut up or the future generations of Americans will not enjoy the America I grew up in.

When we can no longer voice our 1st amendment right to free speech our GREAT NATION is doomed.

Obama Information Czar Calls For Banning Free Speech

According to Paul Joseph Watson at prisonplanet.com:

The controversy surrounding White House information czar and Harvard Professor Cass Sunstein’s blueprint for the government to infiltrate political activist groups has deepened, with the revelation that in the same 2008 dossier he also called for the government to tax or even ban outright political opinions of which it disapproved.

Sunstein was appointed by President Obama to head up the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, an agency within the Executive Office of the President.

On page 14 of Sunstein’s January 2008 white paper entitled “Conspiracy Theories,” the man who is now Obama’s head of information technology in the White House proposed that each of the following measures “will have a place under imaginable conditions” according to the strategy detailed in the essay.

1) Government might ban conspiracy theorizing.

2) Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories.

That’s right, Obama’s information czar wants to tax or ban outright, as in make illegal, political opinions that the government doesn’t approve of. To where would this be extended? A tax or a shut down order on newspapers that print stories critical of our illustrious leaders?

And what does Sunstein define as “conspiracy theories” that should potentially be taxed or outlawed by the government? Opinions held by the majority of Americans, no less. . . .
