      XPost: alt.fan.air-america, alt.fan.barbra.streisand, alt.fan.j-garofalo       XPost: alt.fan.julia-roberts, alt.politics.democrats       From: Dr.Goldblatt@G00GLE.0RG              Elton John is a left wing hate filled Moron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!                     Singer Elton John is attacking the 'censorship' in America. In an       interview, he claims that "There's an atmosphere of fear in America       right now that is deadly." He also said performers could be       "frightened by the current administration's bullying tactics." What is       he talking about?              Who knows....I don't know of a single case of the Bush administration       bullying a performer for any statements they've made. Actually, it's       the general public. And this gets to the bottom of just what your       definition of censorship is. For instance, you had the Ditzy Twits.       They made some anti-Bush remarks overseas. People found out about it       and didn't like it. Radio stations stopped playing their music. They       weren't censored by government, they just fell victim to their own       stupidity when the public demanded that radio stations quit playing       their music. The Bush administration had nothing to do with it.              Then you have the case of Whoopi Goldberg. At a left-wing rally, she       referred to President Bush by making sexual references out of his last       name (and she wasn't talking about a shrub.) Slim-Fast, with whom she       was employed as a spokeswoman, has a business to run and products to       sell. They can't afford to politically offend half or more of their       customers. So Whoopi got canned....and it had nothing to do with the       Bush administration.              Just because somebody doesn't like what you have to say doesn't mean       you are being "censored." The radical left is just finding out that       people aren't interested in what they have to say and freedom of       speech doesn't include the freedom to be heard.              boortz.com                     --       Left-wing liberals are EVERYTHING they accuse the right of being. They       are mean, vicious, hateful, greedy, cold-hearted, closed-minded,       selfish, intolerant, bigoted and racist.              Liberals HATE America!              http://www.michaelmoorehatesamerica.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
