So as long as I am not in the Gov't , I can suppress YOUR free speech? If your company (assuming you worked for some org, not self-employed) says you cannot post on FreeRepublic, then it's OK to suppress your speech?

Pretty much so. If you don't like the rules one employer has, go find another one. Or, better yet, start your own company and make your own rules.

Except for pretty limited categories, employers can make whatever rules they want for employees. Then again, no one forces one to work for a particular employer.

It's clearly within the rights of a private company to do so. What makes you think otherwise?

You are entirely correct! By the same token, I can flip you the bird and walk away any time I want. That's called FREEDOM! Sucks, don't it?
