The leftwingers at Google can eagerly cooperate with the Butchers of Beijing but try to ban conservative sites.
Nice to know that liberals are so conssitent.
I just went there and it opened right up but I have the link bookmarked and don’t go through Google!
Are we allowed to menion L.com around here?
Could be a new *Crinton campaign slogan...
Throw away that crap Windows PC and get a Macintosh. All your worries will be fixed right away. I have gone to Lucianne a dozen times today without a hitch.

Totalitarians of a socialist bent are gaming the Google threat detection and prevention system to deny access to views they deem a threat to their worldview.
Google has shown itself not to be lax, but an active participant in blocking the free speech over the internet of organizations that hold views opposed to by the staff of the Google corporation.
Google officially views you, your family, your neighbors, your community and the people of the United States as serfs without Constitutional rights, and they have now in the last month, clearly stated their position on your lack of humanity several times through their legal department.
Google has been hoisted upon this once beautiful thing called the “internet”, to be the jackboot to the throat of the people of the entire developed world.
Welcome to the new media, same as the old media.
"I believe that all entities, whether government or free-market, need to protect the sanctity of free speech. This is a basic civic responsibility. Those who do not are cowards. Sadly, we live in an era where civic responsibility is disposable, considered a burden instead of a privilege." - Frank Salvato, publisher of The New Media Journal
They banned The New Media Journal. They banned MichNews.com. They banned The Jawa Report. Google is on a political and ideological campaign of political correctness that sees them denying access to their service to any website - be it news, opinion or a hybrid of both - that dares to address the subject of radical Islam.

This sets a dangerous precedent. What will the next subject be that serves as a catalyst for Google to promote their unique brand of corporate censorship? Which website will be the next to have it's Internet presence diminished at the hands of Google's "progressive" ideological agenda? WorldNetDaily? JihadWatch? NewsMax?
It is because of this - and our dedication to American Free Enterprise and the free market - that we have established The Anti-Google Search Engine Index. This index offers an ever-expanding list of search engines, many more comprehensive and many who do not manipulate content based on the ideology of political correctness.
We urge you to switch from using Google as your search engine and try the ones listed below. If you would like to suggest a search engine for inclusion on the list click here. Bear in mind that if the search engine you are suggesting charges for inclusion, a complimentary submission of The New Media Journal in the index will be required.
We may not be able to force Google to stop censoring free speech, but we can affect their bottom line. A

* - Include Google search results |
Here is the immediate work around:
problem - when you use google.com to search for “lucianne.com” the first result, www.lucianne.com is blocked by google’s use of StopBadware.org filtering service.
solution - on the top of the page click on the “Preferences” link next to the Search button.
Scroll down to
SafeSearch Filtering. Select the radio button next to “Do not filter my search results.”
scroll down and click Save Preferences button.
go back to google.com and search lucianne.com again. Clicking on the result will now bring you to Lucainne.com’s homepage.
It could happen to Free Republic too, or Moveon.Org, any site that allows users posts.
