Well folks, there are two shining examples of leftist “free speech” from this weekend.
Censorship Example #1: YouTube banhammers We Con the World.
If you go to all the sites that posted the video “We Con the World,” you’ll find that the video has been removed. It apparently had over 3,000,000 views.
Well fret not. Folks have been re-posting it, and we won’t give up.
If you are using FireFox (and you should be), install the Download Helper plugin, and you can save videos. Then, they can be easily uploaded to most any video site.
Censorship Example #2: PayPal threatens Atlas.
Pamela Geller, the admin of Atlas Shrugs, has disclosed that PayPal has declared her place a “hate site,” and can no longer use PayPal to elicit donations. You can check out the details at here place.
My idea on this is simple. If anyone out there knows someone at FOX News, see if they can get this covered. All of us are deleting our PayPal accounts, and if FOX puts it on the air, PayPal might suddenly find hundreds of thousands of people suddenly closing their accounts. Maybe that will get their attention. I don’t usually support boycotts, but an overwhelming response might be effective here. Let’s support Ms. Geller as she fights the good fight.
Shall we call it “PayPal-Gate?”
And Last, but not Least, Some Quality Conservative/Patriot Linkage!
The Robot has a post about Obama’s “faith.”
Maggie’s Notebook has a great one about banning Shariah Law.
Steve, at America’s Watchtower, has a great post about Obama’s Union bailout.
The TOTUS blog compares the CEO of BP with the POTUS. The POTUS looses.
The Classic Liberal has a post about the Oil Spill, and who has failed.
Gator Doug is talking about the finger pointing POTUS.
Soylent Green also has coverage of the PayPal censorship of Pamela Geller.
Fuzzy Logic takes on the Feminazis, and wins.
Feed Your ADHD has coverage of the Pay Pal fascism.
LD at Political Realities has a post about the flash flooding in Arkansas.
Wyblog exposes some more ridicule of Catholics, and notes that they wouldn’t dare to it to Islam.
Trestin has interviewed Opus. It’s a good read.
The Camp of the Saints has an important post about saving a Christian convert from certain death.
Manhattan Infidel has useful advise, as long as you aren’t arrested.
Steve at Motor City Times reports that oil rigs are being relocated to Brazil. It seem that Obama is stimulating someone’s economy. Just not ours.
Reaganite Republican has coverage of the PayPal-Gate, as well as some great Sunday Funnies.
Eastern Right is also covering the censorship.
Nuke has some 80′s rock going on.
The Oil Spill is in COMPLETE CONTROL.
BTW, The Oil Spill has a blog.
Sorry if I missed anyone. Have a good evening!

Thanks for the link Matt!
No problem sir!
Outstanding set of links there Matt-Man. (BTW, you need a big MM on your spandex.) I’ve been thinking about this Pay Pal thang. Will share those in a forthcoming post.
Thanks Robot. I look forward to your post. I must say though, that NO ONE wants to see me in spandex!
Thanks for the link!
No problem Steve.
While I am against censorship private companies do have the right to do certain things. I’d be more concerned about Lefty government ideas like the Drudge Tax.
You are right Harrison, but PayPal allows their badge and such to be displayed on pro-jihad sites. And, if they are free to do as they please, we are free to point out their activities, and vote with our dollars as well.
Thanks for the link and the video, I hadn’t seen it yet! Those on the left will use any excuse to silence the opposition. They are the oppressors—I have no doubt!
They are indeed Ron. Thanks!
Thanks for the link my friend. You know how I feel about censorship.
You are most welcome John.
Hi Matt, great post. I’m sick of all the censorship too!
That idea about fox news picking the pay pal gate up is a great one.
Good set of links there too!
I put up an encouraging video to celebrate Flag Day!
Have a nice nite. Happy Flag Day
Thanks Bunni. I did pay you a visit. Your latest is a good one.
I downloaded “We Con The World” and reposted it, Matt. We won’t give up.
Thanks Karen. We’ll keep on fighting!
Thank you, Matt, for helping to get the word out about Mr. Yousef.
