...how vulnerable to censorship

What censorship?
Not buying their music is no more censorship than a liberal not buying a conservatives work.
How many liberals bought a copy of "Godless"?
Is that censorship?

But censorship is okay when it's the Toons and some of their fellow Dem office holders behind it.

Freaking hypocrites.

The only real censorship (or attempt) I've seen recently has been McCain Feingold CFR, which uses government restrictions to keep certain sorts of expression... And then there was the government threat of the revocation of ABC affiliates' FCC licenses... Those are the only cases of censorship I've seen recently, because censorship is where the government uses its power to stifle expression.
