In summary, the conversation discusses the role of the Ashcroft Redaction Force in protecting the American public from subversion by the U.S. Supreme Court. The poster mentions a website called the Memory Hole and a potential misunderstanding about the use of the word "ludicrosity." There is also a reference to a possible lack of attention to the link provided.

That word did not appear in the link. I just made it up to describe the situation.

I suppose JohnDubYa could have been responding to your post. From my experience with him, I thought it more likely that either never having heard of the site, or aware of their slant, he was dismissing the Memory Hole as a source.
 

FAQ: Justice Dept censors a Supreme Court decision?

What criteria does the Justice Department use to determine if a Supreme Court decision should be censored?
