A poll has been conducted and is still available for voting at USA Today. The vote is concerning Rashard Mendenhall's loss of his corporate sponsor Champion apparel after his remarks about Bin Laden and 9/11.

The vote results right now will make you cringe, and we need to impact the results:

•68% think Rashard's sponsor dropping him was the right thing to do.
•18% Think Champion should not have dropped him, and allowed him to speak his mind freely.
•14% Dont care.

Will you help me bump up that 18%? CLICK HERE to vote.

After the killing of Bin Laden, NFL running back Rashard Mendenhall posted a Tweet to his fans saying this:

What kind of person celebrates death? It's amazing how people can HATE a man they have never even heard speak. We've only heard one side...

He went on further to say this about the demolition os the WTC buildings:

“We’ll never know what really happened. I just have a hard time believing a plane could take a skyscraper down demolition style.

The poll is here:

We Don't Care for Free Speech...

...Pat Curley of the Screw Loose Change blog says so anyhow. I don't recall starting a campaign trying to get his blog removed from the internet. I pick my battles and I refuse to have them picked for me any longer by so-called debunkers leaving comments on this blog. They have an open comment policy, we do not, end of story. Perhaps his gripe should be with blogger.com which allows this option.

The internet is funny this way, everybody thinks they are entitled to have their two cents posted right under your two pennies. If someone writes a book their critics do not get a column under each page in which to comment. Their critics can, however, write whatever they please elsewhere and then the author decides which are worthy of response.

Granted, I could just let the comments sit if I deem them unworthy of a response, but I cannot bring myself to do that when they are on the same page as my entry.
