Hmmm, I wonder why?

That's not what is suggested at all - sm
[ In Reply To ..]The promotion of financial agendas by corporations and other entities who publish disinformation while hiding their identities flies in the face of freedom of speech. Disinformation is an impediment to all citizens and serves to confuse people about what freedom of speech is.
"Astroturfing is the practice of masking the sponsors of a message or organization (e.g. political, advertising, religious or public relations) to make it appear as though it originates from and is supported by grassroots participant(s). It is a practice intended to give the statements or organizations more credibility by withholding information about the source's financial connection."
Well, then let's put it another way. (sm) - nm
[ In Reply To ..]The administration wants to keep track of anything bad that is said about them so they can come after you with the IRS or any other dept of gov that they see fit. Better?
Paranoid much? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]“The project stands to benefit both the research community and the public significantly,” the grant states. “Our data will be made available via [application programming interfaces] APIs and include information on meme propagation networks, statistical data, and relevant user and content features.”
“The open-source platform we develop will be made publicly available and will be extensible to ever more research areas as a greater preponderance of human activities are replicated online,” it continues. “Additionally, we will create a web service open to the public for monitoring trends, bursts, and suspicious memes.”
“This service could mitigate the diffusion of false and misleading ideas, detect hate speech and subversive propaganda, and assist in the preservation of open debate,” the grant said.
This is funding for a research project to document blatant lies that are being so easily disseminated through the internet. It is the evolution of social networking. First it was fun, then it was informative and now it is disinformative as well.
It amazes me truly, to this day, how people fall - for a line of garbage.
[ In Reply To ..]That's why our country is failing.
Wake up, America. - This is Big Brother!!!
[ In Reply To ..]Left wing paranoia at work. They're afraid of the truth getting out. What truth? ALL TRUTH!!!
Big Brother is when marketing masquerades as journalism - Wake up
[ In Reply To ..]If you don scrubs and a stethoscope and tell people you're a doctor, it is a crime to advise people about their health.
Wrong. Your view is too narrow. - Read 1984.

OMG, now THAT is funny! A right-winger telling - someone else their view is "narrow"!
[ In Reply To ..]That was priceless.

Freedom Of Religion.May 08, 2010
This country was founded on the needs of free women and men to practice the religion of choice. I find it disturbing that it is assumed on this thread, and generally in the USA that everyone follows Christian practice. And for all you Bible quoters, do you ever quote the Gospel of Mary and other Gospels suppressed by the "church" ? Or just the words of your overbearing patriarchs? P.S. God is neither male nor female. ...

No More Freedom Of The PressJun 21, 2017
Known as Trump LIES. The media is being shut down. This is the part of media that was transparent, the actual television or recording. As of June 5, the communications staff stopped referring to the briefings as a “daily” event in archives on the White House website. Spicer spoke with members of the media for 34 minutes Monday in an appearance that the White House barred from being televised or recorded. Even then, Spicer’s answers to basic questions in many cases offered l ...

(CNN) -- The U.S. commander in Afghanistan has criticized a Florida church's plan to burn copies of the Quran on September 11, warning the demonstration "could cause significant problems" for American troops overseas. "It could endanger troops and it could endanger the overall effort in Afghanistan," Gen. David Petraeus said in a statement issued Monday. With about 120,000 U.S. and NATO-led troops still battling al Qaeda and its allies in the Islamic fundamentalist Taliban movement, Petra ...

A Quotable Quote For All The "freedom Mar 24, 2010
“Look at the tyranny of party–at what is called party allegiance, party loyalty–a snare invented by designing men for selfish purposes–and which turns voters into chattles, slaves, rabbits, and all the while their masters, and they themselves, are shouting rubbish about liberty, independence, freedom of opinion and freedom of speech, honestly unconscious of the fantastic contradiction; and forgetting or ignoring that their fathers and the churches shouted the same blasphe ...
'Pulpit Freedom Sunday' To Defy IRSSep 27, 2010
Nearly 100 pastors across the country planned to take part in Pulpit Freedom Sunday, an in-your-face challenge Sunday to what the government says can and cannot be said in church. The pastors, along with the Scottsdale, Ariz.-based nonprofit Alliance Defense Fund, are reacting to a law stating that churches are not allowed to support politicians from the pulpit, according to the ADF. The growing trend is a challenge to the IRS from the churches, and may jeopardize their all-important tax-e ...

He didn't know it was coming. I always liked "Uncle Joe" except for being so down on coal. He always had a good sense of humor and I always felt he was humble. His speech is showing it. I'm glad he god recognition for his many years. So there he goes, praising his family instead of what he has done ...

Why Religious Freedom Laws Like Indiana's Are A Bad Idea For Left AND Right, Christian Or NotApr 01, 2015
Let me first say, again, I strongly believe in protecting civil liberties, but not promoting them. This means regardless of whether I agree or disagree morally, I do NOT agree with extremists, right or left, hellbent on forcing opinion into law. Recently, this has been done by both sides, either by enacting deceptive state law that "pretends" it doesn't discriminate, or by filing deceptive lawsuits that "pretend" they're with whomever refused them, rather than finding the perfect sit ...

I'm surprised no one on this board commented on it yet. I watched it and he seems pretty pi$$ed. I just hope he really means what he said this time. As he said, it is his responsibility. Maybe now he will stop blaming the former administration and focus on being a president instead of a puppet. The only problem I see is that talk is cheap. Implementation of what his plans are for the terrorist problem has yet to be seen. I did miss the press conference between Homeland Security ...

Obama's SpeechJul 16, 2012
The official transcript relates: There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me — because they want to give something back. They know they didn’t — look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Le ...
