Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg Will Not Be Under Oath Before Senate Committee, But Compelled by Statute to Tell The Truth

Congress is worse than useless. Congress is the enemy.

Diamond & Silk, whose real names are Lynette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson, explained to Fox News that they think it was a bid to goose the midterms for Democrats and outlined what they did:

So restricting these two will throw the midterms to the Democrats? Not much ego, is there?

Funny... when I posted a thread about why consevratives do nothing but complain about Facebook, I was told that Zuckerberg was no different than Jim Robinson.

Some key differences are:

(1) Facebook helps users monetize their FB activity (for a fee) and therefore, capriciously banning them constitutes restrain of trade, not free association.

(2) Jim Robinson was always very clear that FR would represent his political views

(3) Facebook alleges that the content you post on FB is YOUR property, so destruction of that content is destruction of YOUR property.

They didn’t claim that it would singularly throw the midterms to the Dems. But it’s a part of a systematic campaign which plainly does intend to do exactly that.

On a side note, what the hell is your problem? Why are so many FReepers always so obnoxious and snotty towards conservatives? What kind of hate-boner do you get from belittling your own team?

Facebook is racist and sexist.
