NBC’s Andrea Mitchell Calls for Censorship of Blogs
The Evil Conservative Blog ^ | 10 January 2009 | Evil Conservative

Posted on 01/10/2009 12:05:05 AM PST by nysuperdoodle

Andrea Mitchell of NBC News gushed her way through an interview with Charlie Rose Wednesday night, virtually cuckolding Alan Greenspan and generally making the rest of us nauseous.

But no censoring needed of Chrissy Matthews or Rachel Maddow. You can’t BE biased ENOUGH on the left...

Like I’ve always said:

Political correctness is a form of censorship. I’d like to see her censor the signs I will put in my yard someday (I say someday because my house is currently on a military base). Or the bumber stickers on my car.

She doesn't call for government censorship:

“MITCHELL: ...I think they realize that America wants to see results, and they don't want gridlock. So I think this is an extraordinary moment. I guess my passion is for something to happen to fix these problems, and for dialing down of all of the sharp criticism that we have on cable talk, on talk radio, from, you know, the –

ROSE: From left to right.

MITCHELL: – the blogosphere. I just wish that we could find something in the center that would be bipartisan and would be productive and constructive.””

Who exactly do you think she is referring to? Who else but the government can “dial down” criticism?

Why doesn’t she just admit that she’s a Communist?

She is talking about Republicans, in her view, being afraid to criticize Obama because he is so popular.

Liberalism is going to suck us down into a hellhole, and dimwits like Andrea Mitchell will do all they can to precipitate our downfall.

I understood it differently. She seemed to refer to the GOP as acknowledging Obama’s numbers and how McConnel et al are playing nicely. He got a pat on the head. That was nice.

I saw her remark about bloggers totally differently and contextually unrelated in that afer saying relatively nice things about the GOP-DC, she seemed to be making a pitch for them to assent to a “dialing-down” of the blogosphere. I can only assume that she is referring to the government at the dials.

Maybe not tho. Maybe she means Keith Olbermann

Censorship is foundational to the Dems.

The concept goes back much further than than. Look up in the history books all the hue and cry from the “establishment” when the printing press was invented.

Because deception is in the nature of the true communist when they do not currently have the ability to censor or murder us.

Given the chance, communists would have us all murdered for having dared defy them.

Even Obama's buddy Bill Ayers acknowledges their need to destroy us.

"Well, what is going to happen to those people that we can’t re‑educate, that are die-hard capitalists?” And the reply was that they’d have to be eliminated and when I pursued this further, they estimated that they’d have to eliminate 25 million people in these re‑education centers.” –Bill Ayers

Look in the mirror, Andrea. That exactly describes what the MSM (and you are a classic example) should be, but isn't.

Free individuals in a free society (as the framers of the Constitution intended to establish for this nation) have the freedom to choose. I choose to personally censor you and like minded journalistic disgraces.

Nor any censoring of explicit sex or anything else that would provide any standard of decency. All is fair especially if it involves gays and trannies.
