Use your remote

As if we needed more proof that leftist moonbats are too stupid to care for themselves, let alone set policy for all, the paper from Moonbat Capital Seattle reports that a man is marketing a device that filters out FoxNews from cable.

Imagine the outcries of censorship and fascism if someone sold a similar device designed to block out CNN.

Why is that it's only censorship when liberal views are suppressed?

Not that this is in any way censorship.  Real censorship is someone with power using that power to keep you from sending or receiving messages based on their content.  For instance, if the FCC blocked FoxNews, that would be censorship.  You turning it off on your television is choice.  And that power to choose is what makes American freedom great.

That said, this is proof that the moonbats really don't understand how this choice thing works (ironic, since they are always the protesting for their right to "choose" to kill unborn babies).  If they don't like FoxNews, they have the power to choose not to watch it without spending the $8.95 on Mr. Kimery's device.  Ever heard of the remote control?  And every cable and satellite company (which you must use to see FoxNews) has channel blocking built-in to the system (read your owner's manual or call the toll-free customer service).

In all fairness, Mr. Kimery at least recognizes that no one actually needs his device:

"The point is not to block the channel or block free speech but to raise awareness," said Kimery, who works in the high-tech industry.

Typical liberal moonbat pap; they'd rather be "aware" of a problem than actually do anything about it.  People are starving?  Let's record a pop album!  That's much better than overthrowing the fascist regimes that control the food supply and allow millions to starve!  People are dying of AIDS?  Let's all wear ribbons!  That will stop the problem faster than teaching people to be responsible about sex.  So what to do about FoxNews?  Let's sell a redundant device that no one needs to raise awareness, rather than encourage CNN and the other FoxNews competitors to improve their quality, thereby lowering the people's demand for "Fair and Balanced" programming.  Yes siree, Bob, that will do it!

Remember folks, these people marketing devices to take away your news choice are the same people who think government should make all your important decisions for you.

Does the left really support choice?

There's really no other way to say it - this is an extremely good post. You tapped the nail in straight, and drove it right home.

Good on ya, Gullyborg!
