some interesting observations from

wonkette

interesting to see what websites can get through and what can't. i am sending care packages to three deployed members of the armed services. i have mentioned this before. i do NOT talk politics with them nor have i provided them with the address of this blog. they are over there and i am not. i'm certainly not going to tell them how and what they should feel. oh and the other day i got an AMAZING letter from the base commander of one of the deployed service members i'm writing to. a special shout out to all of THOSE men and women (of course they won't see this particular shout out, but it makes ME feel better)


Our Boys Need Gossip! (our GRRRLS do to by the way)
If we may do a brief update to a post of ours that got a substantial amount of attention last week:
We were originally going to say that we don't actually believe that we here at Wonkette are being “censored” by anyone just because military computers in Iraq are blocked from viewing our site...........

update.
Unfortunately anonomizers don't work out here (never have). Anyway, I had a few minutes today and thought I'd look and see what else was banned on the Marine web here. I think the results speak for themselves:
