There’s nothing surprising about a liberal media platform like Facebook censoring content it opposes. Heck, there’s nothing wrong with Facebook censoring content of any kind, for any reason. Facebook can do whatever it wants. What is surprising is that Gizmodo, a tech-arm of the left-leaning Gawker universe, actually published a story in which former Facebook employees announce to the world that censoring trending news favorable to conservatives was (and probably still is) company policy.

Looks like the Plagiarizing Pretendian Liz Warren, with zero American Indian blood, is actually a distant relative of a member of the local militia tasked with removing the Cherokee from their homes.

Ms. Warren’s great-great-great grandfather, was apparently a member of the Tennessee Militia who rounded up Cherokees from their family homes in the Southeastern United States and herded them into government-built stockades in what was then called Ross’s Landing (now Chattanooga), Tennessee–the point of origin for the horrific Trail of Tears, which began in January, 1837.

Front page, Union Leader. The Nashua Delegation to the New Hampshire House don’t get no respect. Someone cut the money for yet another (other, other) rail study from the transportation budget and they are unhappy. As a preventative to future acts of injustice ‘Nashua’ is considering a hired gun. A paid lobbyist to…do what the Nashua Delegation to the New Hampshire House was elected to do in the Legislature. Convince them that the $4 million dollars for the rail study “is not taxpayer money.”

Seriously.

Republican State Senator Jeanie Forrester (now a candidate for Governor) has a few vote skeletons in her closet, so she needs to up her street cred with the base. One such effort, a campaign video of her at a range, shooting a pink firearm (29% rating from the NHFC), invited some exercise of the first amendment on Facebook. I thought I’d join in–with apologies to Aerosmith for modifying some of the lyrics to Janie’s Got a Gun. That’s right. Jeanie’s got a gun…complete with cheap shots.

Indicating reason number 4,235,153 that the government is too big: They’re going after cigars!!! Cigars! What the hell is wrong with these people? Shut it down. Shut it all down!  The Federal Government is incapable of doing what it’s already seized responsibility for, so what do they do?  Grab more!!  The rapacious insatiable bastards.

I can’t stand these people. And by people, using the term loosely here, I mean Progressives.  (Yes, I’m implying that Leviathan is infected with the parasitical organisms). Progressives are mentally defective control freaks. That’s really all there is to it. There’s something twisted and gnarled in their gray matter that makes them insufferable busy-bodies that just cannot leave people alone. They’re incurable. They see something they don’t like and in their drunk on self-regard arrogance slur to themselves, “I’ll fix it!!” Then proceed to make what wasn’t a problem a problem, or what was a small problem, large. Worse yet:

Nobody’s asking for their M***** F****** help!  Mind your own damned business.

They just can’t help shoveling more and more of life into the fetid maw of the Federal Government.  And the Government just keeps gorging on more and more and evacuating the previously swallowed.

It’s the Monty Python Mr. Creosote skit in The Meaning of Life writ large.
