When Cindy Zawadski established the blog ”As Ohio Goes,” she did it as a bit of a response to Buckeye State Blog—specifically the manner with which BSB moderator Russell Huglock would censor posts he did not like.  That’s why, at the top of As Ohio Goes, the banner reads “Everyone is welcome to participate, all you need to do is register and you will be able to post diaries.” This afternoon, Zawadski joined the ranks of Democratic bloggers devoted to censoring political dissent.  Perhaps she should change her slogan to “Everyone is welcome to participate, all you need to do is support Democrats.”

We cross posted our recent exclusive about Dr. Vic Wulsin (”Dr. Vic Wulsin: Ethically Challenged? Part I” ), and a short time later it was deleted by Zawadski.  In its place?  A fluff piece about Wulsin and her supposed dedication to public health.  One must wonder if “public health” extends to African AIDS patients, at least in the world of Zawadski.

Zawadski did couch her censorship in very friendly and polite terms, however.  She invited me to post a comment at the current fluff piece, directing people to my article here at The Beacon.  As of this post, I have not submitted a comment.  And she also wrote this:

I am sorry to have “muddied up” a Democrat’s goal of “removing republicans.” Perhaps this would be easier to do if Democrats would not put blinders on concerning their own candidates.  Hypocrisy is not a recipe for success!  Hiding the truth is not the high road!

Is this what it means to “remove republicans”?  Hypocrisy, censorship, and an inability to address dissent?  Sounds rather like a Republican to me!  Must not be much of a difference these days…
