UNBELIEVABLE! I wanted the Obama supporters there to know about Obama not listening to the Jopek's wishes and the word "bracelet" was banned! Look at how I had to write b racelet every time I wrote the word!

It was just on the 24 board though. The “House” message board allows bracelet. Where’s Jack Bauer where we need him though, DAMMIT!

Maybe it is the word "race" in bRACElet?

If the forum allows formatting, you can get around most censoring software by, for example, using html or vB commands to specify a font color or size for the 'c' in bracelet.

A more ghetto way is to write it as bra(elet...lol.

I noticed yesterday when FOX was playing “highlights” from the debate, they showed the clip where McCain was talking about his bracelet. I wanted my husband to see Obama’s reply - but they cut that part out. They didn’t even show it! I couldn’t believe it.

Anyone who has considered FOX the “conservative” or “honest” network has just received an education. All of the media is tanked for Obama.

Try inserting an asterisk for one of the letters...it works on most simple filters.

  Would they find the word brazziere objectionable? As in Jim, let me make a point. I've got a brazziere too... and uh... uh... It's eco-friendly and it's solar powered... and I'm Barack Obama!

What I find the most disgusting about this entire bracelet thing is that, - even though the family requested that Obama not longer wear the bracelet - the mother gave his bracelet to Obama & is still a supporter of Obama!!

The shame is hers - along with the socialist that she supports & is voting for.

Is this what her son died for?

Sorry - not gonna play that game. His name is already in the public eye (66,900 hits on Google for Ryan Jopek). It’s not my fault, and I won’t feel bad about using it.

According to a poster, the word was banned for another reason:

“Because somebody used to come on the board and spam it with advertising for “What Would Jack Bauer Do” brace-lets. He was banned numerous times and kept showing up, so Stevo banned the word.”

Fox News is in the tank for Obama and his efforts to censor anything bad about himself. They even posted CNN’s poll of Obama won the debate instead of their own that showed McCain won.

Good Grief Charlie Brown!

Quote of the day:

“America, we cannot turn back. Not with so much work to be done. Not with so many children to educate, and so many veterans to care for. Not with an economy to fix and cities to rebuild and farms to save. Not with so many families to protect and so many lives to mend. America, we cannot turn back. We cannot walk alone. At this moment, in this election, we must pledge once more to march into the future. Let us keep that promise - that American promise - and in the words of Scripture hold firmly, without wavering, to the hope that we confess.” — Presidential Nominee Barack Obama

“thats not the point . the point is why is FOX banning the word?

You have to ask?

Just the usual MSM bias and lefty symp censorship, denial of reality and outright fascism.

I’m beginning to think that the left in this country is a bigger danger than the Islamofascists and their future nukes.

The left is here 24/7 365 tirelessly working to destroy this country and freedom. They hate their own country, freedom and Western civilization.

The left is like Islmaofascism, it’s death.

Why does the Fox board even permit political rantings FOR (or against) Obama on a forum about a fictional alternative future for America?

Pose that question if they are going to consider SOME topics from the televised debate to be “off limits”.

See if it will take bra clet.

Thanks for the video link (Bracelot debate)....I watched it again, and it reinforced my extreme distatse for Barry. He has no shame and will stoop to the lowest level for his cause. I’m embarrassed that a candidate for President of the United States would show such disdain for the efforts and sacrifice of our troops. How can any rational, patriotic American want this man as our commander-in-chief?

See if it will take bra clet.

It likely will, however, if "bracelet" is banned, it's likely some little Obamabot choose to add it to a forbidden word list in the posting algorithm. The more ominous aspect of this is that it destroys the ability of someone googling the word "bracelet" and ever finding the comments on the Obama bracelet fiasco.

Just an early taste of how Obama's goon squads will make all negative references to him disappear.
