Facebook censors Navy Seals to protect Obama

[tinydancer]

Well this is an interesting twist to this saga.

Over the weekend, Facebook took down a message by the Special Operations Speaks PAC (SOS) which highlighted the fact that Obama denied backup to the forces being overrun in Benghazi.

The message was contained in a meme which demonstrated how Obama had relied on the SEALS when he was ready to let them get Osama bin Laden, and how he had turned around and denied them when they called for backup on Sept 11.

I spoke with Larry Ward, president of Political Media, Inc -- the media company that handles SOS postings and media production. Ward was the one who personally put the Navy SEAL meme up, and the one who received the warning from Facebook and an eventual 24 hour suspension from Facebook because Ward put the meme back up after Facebook told him to take it down.

Beats the hell out of me I am not Facebook....If I was the one posting I would dispute the call instead of acting like petulant child and seeking to sensationalize this situation. Anyone with an open mind and a 6th grade education can see that there are rights due the posting pastry and he has every opportunity to have this decision reversed.
