"I have been hesitant to post this update because I cannot find a link to prove the claim, but it is starting to look like this Blogspot shut down of anti-Obama sites occurred because of a concerted effort by Obama supporters.

What they did was go to the Blogspot addresses found on the site of the NoObama coalition called Just Say No Deal and constantly hit the "mark as spam" link so that Google's Blogger would be flooded with spam warnings. This caused Google/Blogger to freeze the sites marked.

Apparently, this campaign merely took advantage of Google/Blogger's flawed system of finding spam blogs. So, it looks like what we have here is an Obama dirty trick to shut down political opposition. Looks like Obmatons aren't much for that whole democracy thing."

This is what DolphinFan said and is close to what I first had heard so I have added it this poll.

    Google operates in a free country and is free to do whatever it wants with its own business within the law.

    They are probably shutting down the "Obama is a secret muslin terrorist' blogs. Google has every right to delete bullshit spam from their servers.

    It is still censorship!! People have a right to free speech.
  • raves     [-] by Nate Hussein SD
    Google is essentially a media company, and since the organization has the right to free speech, it has the right to delete those blogs. Free speech is on google's side. Blogs can move to other blog sites that support their postings. This is how a free country and free market work. Are you an American?

    Try to stop just hating everything liberal and use you brain for a second.

    I think this is censorship and we should have the right to say what we think without those folks at Google or anywhere else shutting us down. Screw em I can just stop using google there are a multitude of search engines.

    All communist parties and the Nazi party tried try to eliminate any criticism. When Obama is president, freedom of speech will be history.

    I just checked out the justsaynodeal website that is in my favourites, and it all works just fine. I have a new computer, and it does little pop-ups to ask me if I really want to proceed to that website. Not much of a problem. I also have google for my search page, and the google toolbar.

    good-bye free speech!
  • raves     [-] by Nate Hussein SD
    What does this have to do with free speech. Google is a private company and can delete or display whatever content they want. If the government censored such blogs that would be a free speech issue. In fact I think that the 1st amendment could be used as an argument for Google's right to delete such content.

    This is just the beginning, if Barry is elected freedom of speech will
    be a thing of the past, especially for those of us who are free
    independent thinkers. ((( Fairness Doctrine )))

    Check out what's happening in Canada, they are prosecuting authors
    of whom's books disagree with the government's idea of hate speech.
    Some of those authors are American.

    I guess if you don't agree with the left or the right somehow you are
    a hatemonger and will require to be either censored or prosecuted
    by the government.

    It's coming you can't say you weren't warned***

    I have heard about this. It is hard to believe with out proof however. It wouldn't really suprise me much. Isn't that sad!? It is liberal facism. Isn't the term Liberal Facism a little redundant though?

    I haven't seen a drop off in the negative comments about Obama. When did this conspiracy occur?

    The vote at the Convention should be secret ballet..... the Obama intimidation has too much power. His gang of 75,000 is rather scary.
    He is losing his way and favor. He is winging it with his policies trying to pander and please too many groups...... His pages are blank but they have been blank all along. This country is in serious trouble.... we need experience...... we need Clinton.

    Not Fair.........
    However, I personally have had 4 links that I have used that are not favorable to Obama shut down.
    One was a list of all the donations made to elected Super Delegates by the Obama Campaign. It was shut down twice and has been restored again.
    This is it........... interesting to see the list.

    Ok, I'm all for Obama, I like the guy for the most part.... but I think free speech is more important. I hate censorship even more then I hate conformists, and it makes me sad and guilty that the people who support Obama would do something like this. I mean, people can say whatever they want, and we don't have control over it. Esspecially on the internet. Obama supporters don't need to get rid of anti - Obama stuff, they just need to convince others that Obama is the right decision for the government. Erasing those blogs is just childish and will just piss off the people who wrote them. It's no way to get your favorite canidate into office.

    I meant to edit and deleted..... do I want to rewrite? Yes!
    Thank you for your above and beyond ability to allow those that do not share the support of Obama to express their opinion and concerns in these elections. There are many, too many, Obama fans that are very controlling and obnoxious. They are by their actions driving away votes, rather than uniting our efforts around Obama.
    I for one will never, never vote for him so there goes that possible uniting force.
  • raves +3   [-] by Kiosk Kid
    If you are for Obama and you have evidence of the Liberals desire to cap freedom of speech, why would a free thinking person like you still support him?

    I said; if you had evidence. Also, America was built on the freedom of speech.
