But ... but ... I thought President Bush was the one who was attacking our liberties and freedom of speech!
I’ve self censored to the extent that I no longer have anything to do with several people I used to be close to.
Honestly, this title is a bit silly. I have been censoring my thoughts my whole adult life. If I said every stupid thing that popped into my head, I’d be working as a night janitor.
Don’t worry. At least you can say “f***” and “sh**.”
As Bob Dylan said a long time ago
And if my thought-dreams
Could be seen
They’d probably put my head
In a guillotine
That 1 out of 4 sure wouldn’t be me when I hear those purple lips start flappin on the news.
I saw the neighbors black lab packing his bags the other day after the tirade I cut loose with from hearing the Kenyan taunt those who didn’t want this CrapCare.
No if anything I have become more vocal where the hateful Pinkos are concerned.
I never censor my thoughts because they’re thoughts. However, I do censor what I type here about the usurper so as to make it acceptable for polite company.
How does one go about censoring their own *thoughts?* Lots of people control what they say, and know when and where to say things, but censoring their own thoughts? I’m sorry, my personal un-censored thought is that anyone who is claiming to do such a thing is lying. What do they do? Go around all day saying “Don’t think that. Don’t think that. Don’t think that.”
I don’t believe it. And I also don’t believe that people have become any less vocal about their thoughts, despite Obamist attempts to portray disagreement as terrorist, racist, or anti-American.
The only serious question is why the increase is gradual, rather than instantaneously 100%. Even those who plan to benefit from him know they are being screwed in the long run.
This is good considering democrats always lie. Even in polling. More people hate this muslim than it appears.
LOl! You must be kidding! I’m not censoring mine.....
I don’t worry about censoring my thoughts. My differences with Obama are about policy, and not about race. Regardless of how people might want to get me or anybody else to pipe down, I’m not going to do it.
They censor their thoughts but talk to pollsters? This is one of the funnier headlines FR has had recently.
Daily Prayer: Lord, keep your arm around my shoulder and your hand over my mouth!
We know the "Chicago Way" - it's the way of corruption and favor - the same since the dawn of time.
This is not a big f---ing deal.
And of course it’s always nice to quote their own words back to them if you DO say something. My favorite is “But I thought Hillary said that dissent is the highest form of patriotism.” If they accuse you of racism and you’re white, just say, “I’m not a racist, and you KNOW I am not, but if I were, then maybe I’m disagreeing with his WHITE half!” Another good response is to show how WE the people don’t get to live like the Congress and president do. We have to budget our meager dollars, pay our bills, and play by the rules in our workplaces. But Congress does NONE of that.
Most people I know, even if they are politically liberal, live much of their lives in a conservative fashion. They understand fairness and at least acknowledge the existence of a moral compass. They would balk at a fellow employee getting more pay for the same job, for example. Use workplace analogies to prove your points about socialism/communism.
