You're not the only one having trouble with this Boyd jackass. Check out what the Power Line boys are going through with him:

Yeah, but I lied.

[Nataku X]

Are you single?

[Darksheare]

Egads, they're being smug about their ignorance.

[snooker]

Badge of honor. Your toons are great....

[Nataku X]

Just kidding... but man that's a lovely monitor... what'd be more impressive is if it were widescreen and LCD display :o)

I liked you before you were censored

I like you after you were censored

"I'm 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub and I approve this message!"

[Dog Gone]

I'm a married liar. Flat panel 19" Dell is what I really have. Nice, but hardly 36", lol.

[sockmonkey]

Thank you for your efforts at getting the truth out there.

Also, I thought that your response to his Zotting you was very appropriate-I know my response to him would not have been so polite and reasonable because I would have been so angry, I would have just wanted to whack him upside the head.

Looks like Linda Eddy has hit some nerves ping. Keep pouring salt into the wounds, Linda. My kind of girl!!!!

[IPWGOP]

Agreed. "I'll respond...maybe tomorrow" is an incredibly lame retort. Instead of posting this half-complete exchnafge on FR, how bout just responding with Kerry's quote like he asked?

Because he has asked for the FULL, WHOLE quotes. I don't have it memorized verbatim... do you??? If I had on the spot quoted and gotten it WRONG, then yes I would have lost the battle on that point. I am swamped today. My website got 87,705 'hits' just yesterday. Do you have any clue how many emails I handle in one day? The volume is massive now. Sheesh! If I "lose" in your eyes and Old Sarge's, then, too bad. I think I have performed well today. What have you guys done to tackle the likes of this level of media one-on-one? C'mon backseaters. The view from the driver's seat is a bit different than yours in that back seat.

Ahem, only governments can censor. The paper is making an editorial decision. Big difference.

[Dave S]

You do understand that censorship doesn't necessarily mean government censorship, right? She isn't saying her 1st Amendment rights were violated by government action. She's saying the paper censored her. They did. They are certainly allowed to do it, but that doesn't change what it is.

Okay enlightened one, explain to me where choice ends and censorship begins. She is not being censored. She can still publish her work whereever she wants assuming there is a market for it. If she cant get any one to publish it, then she can create her own rag or website and publish it herself.

Linda,

Kudos to you ma'am. I've enjoyed your cartoons, and your emails above. The liberal media has their kneepads on, the truth simply does not matter to them.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Just e-mailed the audio link

[IPWGOP]

Dude, it's coming. I have to get off of this thread and get my work load done so I can respond with the exact wording he requested. I don't have Kerry's 1971 Senate Testimony memorized verbatim. I have to look it up to be exact. Then I will type it up and email the guy.

[TOUGH STOUGH]

Gooooooo Lindaaaaaaa!!!

Terrific job of standing up. You make us proud.

BTW, for anyone who doesn't know it, freedom of speech is for the left and (some)elites only.

I love your cartoon! It says it all!!

[IPWGOP]

Do you have Hugh Hewitt's email? I would like to send this to him...

[vetvetdoug]

A persons' importance and value is measured by the anger or actions of one's enemies. You are a wonderful, honest and intelligent individual with which many true Americans have respect. Keep up the good work and be true and honest. Much of Minnesota would surrender to Canada if a Canadian passed gas.

[laurenmarlowe]

will do Tonk, thanks for the ping.
