Examples of Liberal Censorship Attempts Around the Country

Liberals have been utilizing the tactics of censorship for years. Here are a few examples:

Connecticut abortion supporters attempt to censor Pro-Life license plates (May 26, 2006 - http://www.ctfamily.org/blog/2006/05/)

Pennsylvania Governor Robert Casey, Sr. was forbidden from speaking at the Democratic National Convention in 1992 due to his strong pro-life stance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Casey)

The Democrats tried to censor "The Path to 9/11" because it showed the Clintons in a very unfavorable light (http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2006/09/08/

Weather Channel climatologist Dr. Heidi Cullen has called to have meteorologists who question global warming have their certifications pulled (http://www.norcalblogs.com/watts/2007/01/

Not long ago, Ellen Goodman of the Boston Globe compared global warming skeptics to Holocaust deniers (http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=19463)

A former NY Times correspondent wrote a book calling for the censorship o the religious right in America (http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=18996&keywords=censorship)

The ACLU censored the Constitution itself by claiming that the "freedom of speech is the first freedom mentioned in the First Amendment" when the first freedom mentioned is that of religion. They further went on to quote the First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press," replacing the Freedom of Religion with ellipses (http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=6387&keywords=censored)

The truth of the matter is that liberal politicians and "leaders", for all their talk of "civil liberties" and "civil rights" do not, in fact, believe in "liberty and justice for all." They prefer to live by the tenet set forth in George Orwell's Animal Farm: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

Now, if that's what they want to believe, that's fine. We all have the right to believe what we want. The problem is their hypocrisy. If you believe in something and you act upon it, don't pretend you believe the opposite. People aren't stupid. They'll figure out that you;re pulling the wool over their eyes pretty quickly.
