Freedom of Speech Doesn't Exist in

My mention of the Bush kid's propensity for drunkeness was edited and the thread locked, but it's fair game to have a thread about the Kerry girls being booed at the MTV awards. Mmmm. Go figure.

May I say the dubya was a coke head?

Darn, the one moment I'm not lookin' at TV!!

Surely it's on the net somewhere. . . link? *grin*

sorry you fail to see the difference in the 'booing' thread and whatever you posted.

the 'booing' thread started w/ an article that discussed it & MTV and progressed rather tamely, IMO.

i have no idea what you posted.

Yep. Censorship is Unamerican. Just for grins, is there a single Kerry supportin' Moderator on this board?

Is this one of those things where you must sign a pledge of alligence to W to get in? *grin*

4) Leave the Players Alone. They are 18-22 year old kids. If they sometime act like kids, hey, thats what they do. If they have an off day, give them some grace. If you talk about a situation, I would refer to positions. Saying that the "WRs underperformed." That is very different from saying "Joe Smith sucks!"

5) No "unsubstantiated" rumors. Rule of thumb, if you dont have a link for it, dont post it. Keeps the Blue Sky to a minimum. Even if you site from another Forum, that is okay. Just dont hallucinate new rumors. We are not Tider Insider.

6) When referring to an article, give us a link, ALWAYS! If there is no link, then give us bibliography type info, as in author, article name, magazine-book title, etc. We understand that there might not be an Internet link for Callier's December 1941.

8) Any and all calls by the Mods will be upheld by the Admins. Complain if you want, but it will likely get you nowhere. The mods here have been here for quite a while. There are some new ones but they have been added after a pretty careful review. I implicitly trust the mods decisions. I cannot nor do I want to be involved with all calls as to the rules, class and civility. I back them 100%. I truly cant recall any of our mods over-stepping their bounds. Our mods cover all the forums. I cannot and wont waste all my time doing so. Therefore they rule. If you have a question e-mail/pm one and get an answer.

9) What do YOU get? You get a free place to express yourself as you want to be heard. Your voice will be protected as much as the next person. We have several forums here and we encourage civil Rivals to join in.

Yeah, come to think of it, someone could assume I said something bad or distasteful. It could harm my reputation. Since I have previously been identified as a moron and an idiot as well as the left-wing monikers, I must be allowed to protect my good name! *grin*

In my state 18 makes you an adult. You can't even be a juvenile delinquent unless you are 17 or under.

If you really want to see the pic you can go to www.mamma.com, do a search for kerry daughter, and open the page that says Kerry daughter shows "Cannes", scroll down a little and you will see the pic.

If that had happened to a Bush Daughter it would be run by every media outlet in america.

I did not know censorship was possible on a privately run board? Has the definition of censorship changed? :lol:

LE, I am assuming that you are just kidding by saying there is no difference in the MTV post and your post.

You've got to be kidding! Are you the one who censored it? The Kerry girls post is much worse than mine. Geez.

unfortunately for Kerry's daughter, she's not much more attractive in the real picture.

Your post was edited by me and it was done because I felt it was overboard to make snide jokes about Bush's daughters. If you want to rant on Dubya, be my guest. Likewise with Kerry. But leave the kids out of it. And don't even play dumb and act like commenting on what happened at the MTV awards the other night was on the same level. You get a pretty wide berth talking about the candidates. You get much less of one when you talk about their kids.

And if you think this is a heavily censored board you aren't paying attention. But even if it was "freedom of speech" applies to the government. This is a private board with its own rules that you can like or dislike, but will follow.

LegalEagle = whiny, oversensitive little twit

The thing about the Kerry daughters was simply a thread about them being booed at the MTV awards. How you perceive that as being worse is a question only the voices in your head can answer, Cybil.

For everyone wondering about the hubbub, here is the thread about the Kerry girls being booed:

Ooh. That's terrible! :rolleyes:

LE, first of all I am not a mod, so I could not have locked it. Secondly, you need to learn what censorship is. A privately own company (or board in this case) can't censor because it is not run by the government. Only the government can censor!

The MTV thread was not bashing the Kerry girls and make slanderous remarks about them as your post was about the Bush girls. The MTV thread was a remark about how surprised alot of us were that the normal liberal MTV crowd booed the daughters of the liberal candidate. The thread was nto started by making negative comments about the Kerry girls. My post even suggested that it was a bit inapporpriate because it is not their fault the way their dad has made his reputation. Try reading closer next time instead of the typical defensive, knee-jerk, liberal reaction.

What was overboard about it? Why did you hide it? Flex your muscle all you want.

You are voting for Bush, no? Well, like ol' Pappy Bush he's a one termer. Boy how proud we'll all be when "Hail to the Chief" is played for President Kerry!

Flex my muscle? Geez. Grow up. I made a moderator call on a snide joke about the girls personal lives that I felt was over the line. It wasn't anything nasty, but it was over the line. I'd do the same if someone crossed the line in reference to the Kerry girls.

You are voting for Bush, no?  Well, like ol' Pappy Bush he's a one termer.  Boy how proud we'll all be when "Hail to the Chief" is played for President Kerry!

You need more baiting practice.

And with that, this discussion is done. If you or anyone else needs further explanation, you can PM me.
