I've Changed As Others Have

In the recent past some bloggers have written about their sites being locked after posting anti-Obama or pro-Clinton articles on Blogger.com. It was recently revealed that blogger.com, owned by Google had contributed money to the Obama Presidential campaign, therefore, Google was determined to protect their investment as any good business would do.

So far, I've apparently minded my manners because my blog has not been locked by the Google gestapo, otherwise known as Google/FISA officials. Considering that I'm not a member of the Obama choir though, and don't plan to become one anytime soon, I can already see the storm clouds forming in the distance.

So after reading a number of reviews, and with few expectations, I decided to check into that rival blog that will remain unnamed. The reviews I had read to that point led me to believe blogger.com was much more simple to deal with and by far the best. Now keep in mind I am NOT a blogging guru; I can barely find the publish button at this point. So, when I first went to Blogger.com's rival website I wasn't very hopeful about that being my future home for any serious sounding off articles. Much to my surprise though, the praise I had read about blogger.com was not completely true. I wonder why??

Yes, there are features on that other blog site that I haven't figured out yet but that was also true of blogger.com. I never did figure out all of blogger's features and may not even bother trying to figure them out now.

After a few days of reading and checking ease of features I officially moved my blog to that rival site, under a different name of course. At this point I'm having a ball sounding off concerning issues that the blogger.com gestapo would probably raise an eyebrow at. Those subjects of course involve Obama's flips on issues moderates and liberals were looking to him for leadership on.

So it is not without some serious sadness that I announce my days at Blogger.com are definitely numbered. But just in case someone at Blogger.com scrutinizes this article I want to set out my reasons for moving on.

For seven-and-a-half years we've lived under the very worst White House dictator this country has ever been cursed with. Why? In 2000 there were apparently enough idiots at the polls and in Florida that decided this creature would be a "person I could have a beer with". The mentality it took to come up with that has to this date totally escaped me. During those long seven + years we've had more and more of our Constitutional rights taken away to the point that our Bill Of Rights and Constitution are now in tatters.

Fast forward eight years and here we are faced with another general election that holds no possibility of improvement to life in this United States. BOTH Presidential candidates voted for the latest FISA bill that now gives companies who spy on Americans total immunity. Google and their free blogging website Blogger.com is one of those companies that are now immune from any legal prosecution for spying on me and other Americans, who do nothing more than express an opinion. By the way, that is the First Amendment to that Constitution that no one has to follow now.

I want someone or some company in a position of power to stand up and say enough is enough - WE WILL NOT SPY on law abiding Americans. Is Blogger.com's rival blogging site just such a business?? That is yet to be seen but we know blogger.com is not. So I am moving on in the hopes that Blogger.com's competition shops some backbone.

Good Bye
