A Forum for Vigorous Debate, Cornerstone of Democracy
*********************************************************************************************************************************** A FORUM FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND VIGOROUS DEBATE, CORNERSTONES OF DEMOCRACY [For the journal--guidelines, focus, etc.--go to www.theamericandissident.org. If you have questions, please contact me at todslone@hotmail.com. Comments are NOT moderated (i.e., CENSORED)!] Encouraged censorship and self-censorship seem to have become popular in America today. Those who censor others, not just self, tend to favor the term "moderate," as opposed to "censor" and "moderation" to "censorship." But that doesn't change what they do. They still act as Little Caesars or Big Brother protectors of the thin-skinned. Democracy, however, demands a tough populace, not so easily offended. On this blog, and to buck the trend of censorship, banning, and ostracizing, comments are NEVER "moderated." Rarely (almost NEVER) do the targets of these blog entries respond in an effort to defend themselves with cogent counter-argumentation. This blog is testimony to how little academics, poets, critics, newspaper editors, cartoonists, political hacks, cultural council apparatchiks, librarians et al appreciate VIGOROUS DEBATE, cornerstone of democracy. Clearly, far too many of them could likely prosper just fine in places like communist China and Cuba or Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Russia, not to mention Sweden, England, and Austria.

It is difficult to believe, or perhaps not, that the statement issued by Nancy Gibbs is in fact not a fabrication of P. Maudit! One must wonder if the minds of PC persons simply become inoperant when it comes to PC and multiculti inanity.
Yep. This is an older toon. As ole Juvenal had said (and I paraphrase): it is not possible not to write satire in the times of Rome. Evidently, same goes for the times of America and PC. Thanks always for your comments, Tim!

I like your style of juxtaposing PC or hackneyed statements next to facts which point out the absurdity in the former.
You say more in a seemingly simple toon, than many others say in an entire book.
this is an older toon right?
still relevant, no doubt.
regarding nancy gibbs, what else would we expect from an editor of a magazine with so many subscribers.

Another good toon, George. I heard you were in Germany. Hope you're doing well.
