Kurt Nimmo www.infowars.com www.prisonplanet.tv www.infowars.net www.prisonplanet.com April 4, 2011 In response to the idiotic and pointless burning of the Koran by a Florida pastor and the deadly riots that followed, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina has proposed limiting the First Amendment. “I wish we could find a way to hold people accountable. Free speech is a great idea, but we’re in a war,” Graham told CBS’ Bob Schieffer on Sunday. Graham mentioned government censorship of the First Amendment during the Second World War. FDR signed Executive Order 8985 in December of 1941 and established the Office of Censorship. The order gave a legion of bureaucrats “absolute discretion” over the exercise of the First Amendment and the free speech of all Americans. In the years following FDR’s decree, the government attempted to squelch free speech a number of times for political reasons, most notably in regard to the Pentagon Papers. During Bush Senior’s invasion of Iraq in 1991, the Pentagon revisited wartime censorship and prevented journalists from independently reporting the news. Bush and Reagan tightly controlled the flow of information during the invasions of Panama and Grenada. In 2004, then vice president Dick Cheney outlined what Americans should expect henceforth — a war against shadowy enemies that will last generations. President Bush went so far as to tell NBC’s Matt Lauer it was possible the war could never be won, while Democrat John Kerry said terror would …
@TheInternetLeader I personally don’t care where people’s ancestors are from, I care what is in their head and heart.
elections are just a strategy to make the citizens sit and wait 4 years at a time.
Now that Graham guy is a reptilian pig hounddog hybrid. Sooner they catch him in a compromising position, the better it wll be, You wouldn’t think SC could elect such a wishy washy shashaying piece of man fluff.

I don’t want Ron Paul to be President. He’s too old and he wants to take away welfare.
@DanielDamascusKimery Can’t get enough of the punch bowl?
@DanielDamascusKimery good, maybe then all the lazy crack whores would actually go out and get a job then
@chibears26 Ron Paul wants to destroy The Government.
@jlarsenx87
I… may very well agree with you…
There goes the thumb up!
@DanielDamascusKimery lol, the government has been destroyed for decades. but then i guess you enjoy being an economic slave and enjoy tyranny if you think the government today is the normal american government it used to be as is supposed.
@chibears26 Ron Paul is Racist and he hates Gays. That’s why he’s against Health Care.
you know America’s royally fucked, when the people support restrictions on free speech rights, America;s is a free country? BULLSHIT! Free society my fucking ass!
@DanielDamascusKimery and that’s a bad thing? What planet are you from planet TROLL?
Any of us that believe in Jesus need to go down to D.C. and annoint those buildings with oil. Demons DO NOT like an annointed building, Easy way to pressure out the scum!
@RascalCoyote It just proves how propaganda can brainwash people.
@rev66blessu I can’t keep up this charade anymore lol. I’m a Ron Paul supporter I just wanted to act like an Obamabot for a day to see what it’s like. The douche chills were overwhelming.
@DanielDamascusKimery why are you flatout lying? he’s not against healthcare. he is against the way it is working right now because there are too many people who cannot afford it, so his idea is to try and have a free market healthcare system which would in all likelyhood force the healthcare providers to have to drastically lower their prices, which would obviously allow more people who dont have healthcare to be able to afford it
@chibears26 I was just messin with you dude. I would Fight, Kill, and Die for Ron Paul. Long live The R[evoL]ution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grahm= commie faggot.
You can get pissed someone said or did something, and speak out against it, just can’t move to restrict it.
Alex, European countries still have different laws. Some countries have made exceptions to the freedom of speech.
For example where I am, you can be the biggest fanboi of Hitler, Stalin, Bush or Darth Vader if you want. But if you urge people against other ethnicities or religions, that’s a crime – now, a year back even that wasn’t, we have EU to “thank” about this new thingy.
And I would like to know in which EU country it is a crime to criticize EU. It sure isn’t here, and I’ve never heard it would be anywhere.
We have eelctions coming now, and people criticize EU all days long, in TV and newspapers. An EU critical party here is taking a major election victory. They are very negative towards EU, and many other parliament candisates follow that agenda. You could arrest half of them if that was a crime! Not to speak all the forums discussing people!
It’s funny, but whenever I hear this guy talk, all I can hear is “cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo”
