Huh. I noticed yesterday that the McNaughton blog post showed three links at the bottom of the post including a) this post at Nine Moons, b) “Come Ye Poets of the Bloggernacle!” at BCC and c) a post called “BYU Censors Conservative Artwork?” on “Seth Adam Smith’s Blog.”

That last blog post seems to be from a supporter of McNaughton, and it is the only link that is now listed at the bottom of the blog post. Since I have a Blogger blog myself (actually several), I know that the only way to remove links is to either turn them off in the settings, which he doesn’t seem to have done, or click the little trash can next to each link and delete them individually.

I wouldn’t want to increase McNaughton’s feeling of being embattled and being the last great defender of truth, justice, and the American way by pointing out the deletion of those links, but I do find it interesting that he cries censorship and then evidently turns around and does the exact same thing.

Oooh, how about hugging Mitt while casually turning away from Harry Reid?

You mean like this?

I wonder what grant money was being threatened by your art? No one acts without MONEY being involved and the hypocrisy is so immense by the honesty and conviction of your statements in juxtaposition to the reasons why they are to be removed is awesome…almost another art form called political bull!!!

A university is SUPPOSED to exposed many sides to a position…banning yours LIMITS that expose…the bureaucrats have diminished BYU…..the spiritual nature and theme of your works have assured us all that the powers that be are frail, mindless empty souls looking to deceive not to empower the mind with many views like a true university would do.

They keep rollin in.

If evolution is a sign of liberalism, then how does he paint without opposable thumbs?

how about hugging Mitt and Mike Lee while casually turning away from Harry Reid and Bob Bennett?

Never have I wanted the ability to paint more than at this moment.

Maybe I’m just a dorky lawyer, but I love that of all the evil things in the world, special mention needs to be made about a court case that grants federal courts jurisdiction over state courts on federal matters. Jesus must surely be horrified!

That is probably too subtle for this market. You would need an accompanying explanation, probably several paragraphs long using only single syllable words. It is difficult to move one’s lips while reading big words if the mouth is already being used to breathe.
