Obama is quite obviously an avid reader of books. A few pages from Mein Kampf have already taken a foothold in the U.S due to his policies; it's only a matter of time before that book is mandatory reading in the public schools.
You must admit he learns from the best in the business, as far as rhetoric and public speaking he is almost as good as Hitler, now it seems he's copying a bit of Goebbels. I just can't wait until he tries to imitate good ol' Heinrich Himmler, I wonder if he's saving that for his second term or just 'til after Christmas.....
(P.S. for those of you without a funny bone [you know who you are], note the sarcasm in my post before taking it seriously).

Has anyone determined that Obama is responsible or even knows about this? Could it be the idea of some low level flunky to conserve bandwidth for military purposes. (I didn't say it was a rational reason, just something a bureaucrat might come up with.) Until the source and reasoning behind this can be determined, I'd say it's a little early to be throwing blame. (And SC Shamrock, I'm not one of those who blamed Bush for everything. He made many mistakes, but he is no more Satan than Obama is.) Having said that, this is an outrage that needs to be redressed now if not sooner.
If it works for them, it works for us. It's Odumba's fault, and he should be exiled with Castro.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge. ~Mark Twain

Patch; Up until the late sixties early seventies each Province had a Censorship Board mainly concerned about movies and T.V. Thankfully they are long gone. There are those who would argue that we still have censorship because of the anti-hate laws and laws against child pornography but the are a very small minority and any sane person would agree with that type of censorship. To block a Radio station is ludicrous and is usually done through fear. We both know that the military is not a Democracy but it has no right or business interfereing in the public airways.We use to listen to Hanoi Hannah all the time . It was a big joke.

The Hanoi radio broadcast had just started when I was there. This has been a weekend of memories.
I don't doubt the validity of anything Paul does on this site, not for one minute. Unless I read it incorrectly, however, he hasn't got any cause confirmed yet, just some hunches. I have no idea what other possibilities may be, but I want to see something confirmed before I go sputtering off about totalitarian censorship.

I don't think anyone's expecting you to 'sputter off,' but I do think this is a forum that allows equal voice to all. And I don't think I've seen anything that bans speculation based on information.
Maybe I'm wrong.
I often am, or am told so. Mostly because I'm also in the 'old fartess' category.
I think the reason we think alike is that I am only 9 days older than you we're both Libras and most importantly WE ARE TWO OLD FARTS.....
Yeah I thought Paul would expand on the posting. There has to be a reason.

Camnac:
I suspect our life experiences are quite similar. We lived through the same times.
By the way, I will be gone during the day Monday but will check in on "Health Matters" topic between 4 and 5 PM. I have to be in the Capital first thing Tuesday morning and since I do not do mornings well I will go down tomorrow night.

It does allow equal voice, first of all. And that includes my voice, which says there have been some very outraged and pointedly accusatory statements made here that may or may not hold water about what has happened, when we don't know yet. Speculation is certainly not banned -- speculation even about descent into totalitarian censorship -- but it may be in error, so outraged accusations are at the very least premature. When we know for sure that we have been cut off because of the politically objectionable nature of our commentary, that's the time to scream First Amendment violation.
For what it's worth, being a "fart" is not always tied to age, and being old is not in itself a reason to be wrong. But that is a very general observation, and not aimed at anyone in particular.
