Can't Clean Up Some Oil, But Can Clean Up Some Blogs

Here's a Statist's dream, shutting down thousands of blogs. Democrats for years have been trying to shut down sectors of the Internet, and have even tried to get legislation passed to be able to shut down the whole thing whenever they want, which I chronicled here.

The Obama Government (used to be the people's government) has just shut down a blogger platform affecting 73,000 bloggers.

There are sites that have rip off streaming of movies and games, but Vice President Biden and an agency called Intellectual Property Enforcement have used that as an excuse to shut down thousands of unrelated sites. Wordpress, which offers free blogging platforms like Blogspot, has stated that they're the platform the government shut down, affecting the 73,000 bloggers.

What we have here are a few sites running some rip off operation, and the government uses it as an excuse to shut down all those other sites. The Statist Obama Government has not released any information on what the specific transgressions are. Once again we're treated to the transparent Obama Government.

This is timed perfectly with the coming Senate approval of anti-free speech Statist Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. She believes the Constitution gives the government the right to limit speech in Amerika.
Kagan: "Whether a given category of speech enjoys First Amendment protection depends upon a categorical balancing of the value of the speech against its societal costs."

Legislation to take control of the Internet, 73,000 blogs shut down in one swoop, and a Supreme Court Justice that does not believe in free speech.

Chilled yet?
