Censorship in Chief – An Iowa State trooper investigated for forwarding an e-mails showing mug shots of people wearing Obama t-shirts!

Imagine if you will, during the last 8 years, if a state trooper, or anyone e-mailed mug shots of people wearing dubya shirts mocking George Bush and Republicans on his own time and on his own computer. Do you think the ACLU would care, or get involved in getting that person suspended for 30 days? Welcome to life in the B. Hussein Obama administration:

An Iowa State trooper who was investigated after it was shown that he forwarded an e-mail showing mug shots of people wearing Obama t-shirts has been suspended for 30 days.

Sgt. Rodney Hicok was at home and off-duty when he forwarded the e-mails, said an official with the Iowa Department of Public Safety Bureau and Professional Standards.

The e-mail made disparaging remarks about 15 people in the photos and referred to Obama as having “quite a fan base.”

Hicok was not making a racial statement, the official said, but, rather, a political statement.

In a statement, Hicok said, “I am deeply sorry for my actions … I apologize to anyone this e-mail may have offended, as well as my family, citizens in my community and Iowa taxpayers.”

Hicok ended his statement by saying he guaranteed “nothing like this will ever happen again.”
