No wonder more and more soldiers are getting pissed about Iraq. We now have the very government they defend trying to censure their lives online. This is highly disturbing:

We realize that when it comes to freedom of the press, the USA has fallen to Number 53 in the world — tied with our fascist homies in Croatia and the islanders of the Kingdom of Tonga! — but do we have to make is so damned obvious?

Another Marine stationed in Iraq has sent us a screenshot of what happens when you need some hot news on Macaca and Foley:

forbidden, this page (http://www.wonkette.com) is categorized as (Personal Pages) ALL SITES YOU VISIT ARE LOGGED AND FILED.

Nice little threat at the end, too. Asswipes.

Wonkette also has a screenshot, which show two right-wing sites loaded in the tabs, but her site and Josh Marshall’s site are blocked.

The very tone of that warning is the most disturbing. “All sites you visit are logged and filed”. So it is a crime now for a member of the United States armed services to view left-wing politics? This is the kind of policy Donald Rumsfeld lets go on in his Pentagon.

The right is trying to use the threat of impeachment as a reason to vote for Republicans. Well did Bill Clinton deny the basic constitutional rights of the people who defend our Constitution? Absolutley not. Yes Bush needs impeached and Rumsfeld needs charged for violating the civil rights of these soldiers. With these kind of actions by our leaders, it is no wonder people compare them to Hitler. Sadly I feel that might be an insult on Hitler now.
