Banned words. Banned phrases. You know.. the way DICTATORS want to control free speech!

I think that a considerable number of those working at the CDC can come up with synonyms - hopefully more technical ones - that will go right past the Moron-in-chief's censors and still adequately describe and express the necessary information.

Controlling words, trying to control thoughts... and in an arena that's critical to all people. I'll bet if the FM-i-C contracted some plague that word restrictions would be dropped like a hot potato.

Goddamned dictators.

Looks like the Hitler comparisons that seemed a bit ludicrous initially are becoming a wee bit prophetic.
