There's censorship, and then there's censorship...

From watchdog "Brad Blog," at http://www.bradblog.com/?p=9360

"Oh, noes! Someone prepare the fainting couch!

"Some blogsite calling itself 'Respect in Politics', which claims to be 'nonpartisan' and 'nonprofit,' is simply light-headed with concern over what some disrespectful substitute radio talk show host said on the radio recently!

"The site announces at the top of each page that 'the lack of respect and civility" is "too frequent in politics and the media' and 'needs to be addressed.' Well, we agree with the general premise, of course, but only in the case where respect and civility have been earned, not merely granted."
