Here are your words of wisdom for today from freedom fighter Hugo Chavez!

This is why people have a problem with socialism.
What is your opinion? Should we monitor every word posted or should we have the freedom to say/write what we want. I do believe that there should be responsibility for slander and falsehoods. But oversight to this extent, well, where would it end? who decides what is truth?

No, I believe in the freedom of speech. But I'm afraid of the path we're going down toward bigger government under this Administration/Congress. The more big government, the less freedoms we have. One day it could be our freedom of speech.

Thomas Jefferson said
The government that is big enough to give you everything you want, is the government that cab take everything away.
Now I have always known this to be said by Thomas Jefferson, however I have found different sites crediting Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, and Davy Crockett!

What are you afraid of Mr. Chavez? Are you afraid that someone would actually speak their mind about you? People should be able to write what ever they want to, and others should utilize their ability to not read everything.
Just to prove the point that the Internet is where you can say anything I will write the following in Noggish, oggly boogly Mr. Chavez.
