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.

Hi Dorianne,
You are the subject of my new blog post: http://wwwtheamericandissidentorg.blogspot.com/2012/11/dorianne-laux.html. Feel free to comment, though I expect you won't. Poets tend to scorn vigorous debate, cornerstone of democracy.

Thanks for checking it out, Dave. But rather than your birth cert idea, maybe I should do a cartoon of you cheering like that poet for Obama, Obama, Obama! Anyone blinded by a politician, left or right, needs to schedule a therapy session.

G. Tod you could do a toon on me a person that the readers of the AD don't know, but they do know you and since you believe in sheriff Joes report on Obama's phony birth certificate, why not do a toon on it, or you could do a toon on me the poet cheerleader for Obama calling you out that the birther movement and Joes report are total bullshit, that could satisfy us both.

As mentioned, the Obama team excels at demonizing anyone who contradicts the Obama narrative. Republicans ought to be studying how the team has managed to be so successful at this technique. It was certainly a key to Obama's re-election. The birth certificate examination is a rather complex technical matter. Here's an interesting analysis by an Adobe Photoshop expert. Read it or remain blissfully ignorant about it. You didn't call me out. I was never hiding. I VOTED AGAINST THE LIAR IN CHIEF, aka MR. TRANSPARENCY. Here's the link: http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/07/new_obama_birth_certificate_forgery_proof_in_the_layers.html

Since you are stuck on the birther thing, I don't mind discussing it. Again, all that the experts have done is prove the birth certificate provided by the White House is a forgery. They have not proved and did not seek to prove that Obama was not born in Hawaii. That's clear. Focus on it for a second. The question therefore becomes WHY the forgery? Only Obama and team have the answer to that. And that question clearly relates to WHY the video lie regarding Benghazi. At least we all know that was a lie. From a First Amendment perspective, the Benghazi lie is much more pertinent than the forgery. After all, Obama has been elected by a majority of the people twice. So, whether or not he is legally eligible to be president becomes irrelevant now. As for the Benghazi lie,it plays into the Islamist desire to establish anti-blasphemy laws in every country, including the USA. In fact, multiculturalists on campuses across the country have been restricting the First Amendment illegally. DO NOT OFFEND has become their mantra. DO NOT OFFEND...
