Military Censorship
The Army is effectively shutting down Army blogs. This is stupid. Sgt Mom says something like: "What did you expect? It is all about Power and Control." (see how easy it is to get a link from me? LOL) We need more information from the Army, not less. So what do they do? Put a big kink in the hose. I think this has gone beyond stupid and is now firmly into insane territory. My guess is that this is a move to cover for the inarticulate Commander in Chief. If he can't adequately express himself no one can. Especially, he doesn't want to be upstaged by some 2nd Lt or a private even. However, that is strictly a guess. Here is what I think should be done: It seems to me that the way to handle this is blog teams. Each member of the team is assigned to censor all the others with a person responsible in each team. Self regulation. Then you have a blog central to pass info and answer questions and handle opsec regulation. I miss Armorgeddon.

Been clarified by Tony Snow and the Pentagon. No blogs where the CO hasn't been informed. If you want to blog, you tell your CO where it is, get OPSEC training, and then you can blog all you want as long as you don't violate OPSEC.
