Wordpress kills blog spam dead

Well, I've complained to the FCC and they don't seem to be up to the task of prosecuting CBS for forging government documents. They seem to think that forgery falls under the catagory of free speech protected by the first amendment. Hmmm... does this mean that identity theives are merely excercising their first amendment rights? Well, I have contacted the Department of Justice to find out their view on the matter. We'll see...
