Yahoo censoring certain websites?
Vanity | 10-06-08 | KJM

Posted on 10/06/2008 4:50:55 PM PDT by Blue Highway

I was on Yahoo Finance and was involved in a thread where someone was discussing Sarah Palin and why they don't like her, and it turned into a hate on Sarah thread. They attacked her for her Global Warming is a hoax views which I also agree. I wanted to post www.oism.org/pproject/

If I copy and paste it into the message box I hit preview and it pops up. Once I hit send it will just time out. I take out that website and it works. I typed it manually without cut/copy/or paste as I saw some weird stuff not working if you cut/paste out of notepad and into message boards for some reason.

Anyone have a problem like this ever occur?

Is there a reason Yahoo would ban this website just because it is a website with the 31,000 signatures of US scientists that are petitioning the idea of Global Warming caused by man.

You should try posting that website on any yahoo message board. Maybe it’s my computer, but I tried it on a few browsers and no go... IE7 Opera 9.21 FF2...

I had to sneak the website by telling them to google O I S M since once I typed out www.oism.org it wouldn’t go through. Anyone else know of any blatant censorship like this?

I'm partial to Gibson Les Pauls.

Well it is a “vintage” 1983 or 84 Ibanez strat (not the late 80’s shredder type guitar with Floyd Rose trem). I do have a 1980 Ibanez Artist AR50 that will give a Les Paul a run for it’s money.

I think that the “buggaboos” are just trying to scare everyone on earth to death if they are gullible. “The sky is falling”,” the earth is heating up, the money will all dry up and the jobs, and we will all be trying to live on nothing, living in tents, if we are lucky.”
