Readers should also be aware that the Pentagon's technology blockade strategy extends to the Internet. Web sites like Democratic Underground and Daily Kos have a lot of explaining to do when they censor critical information during a national emergency. These web sites, along with Fox News and the other news sources with overt and covert political agendas, are not serving in the public interest and should be avoided as sources for important information - WM<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.waynemadsenreport.com">www.waynemadsenreport.com</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> /<br><br>Since I found this through DU - I don't really believe it, although I have seen some threads being locked for being unsubstantiated reports. <br> <br> MelissaB (1000+ posts) Sun Sep-04-05 02:00 PM<br>Response to Reply #9 <br>12.

Have seen questionable locking, baiting by a mod <br> and had one of my posts deleted when I responded to a post that the thread would probably be locked. My offensive post? Along the lines of:<br>thanks for the heads up. gives me a clue as to who is on duty.<br>Hey, delete this too<br><br>Yep, he did. Like wow what a surprise NOT. <br><br>We need tp have thick skins around here as sometimes a post is more confusing than the spoken word. But if we should have thicker skins, so should the mods, especially when they use their magic buttons in a manner which is less than judicious.<br> <br> Alert Printer Friendly | Permalink | Reply | Top <br> mzmolly (1000+ posts) Sun Sep-04-05 02:01 PM<br>Response to Reply #10 <br>13.

I don't think so.
