Censorship in the Bluegrass State

Kentucky's excellent progressive state-politics-related blog, the Bluegrass Report, has apparently been banned by Republican Gov. Ernie Fletcher, one of America's least favorite governors, from state-owned computers. Mark Nicholas, of the Bluegrass Report:

I've gotten a handful of e-mails this morning already that BluegrassReport.org has apparently been blocked to state computers by the Commonwealth Office of Technology. Readers in three different cabinets have e-mailed to tell me they get a "blocked" message when they try to access the site.

Nothing like a little censorship with your breakfast. Welcome to the People's Republic of Kentucky.

Of course, the national progressive blogs took notice. And Kentucky responded by... banning those bloggers too! This is going to be insane. I wonder how long before Perry picks up on the idea and blocks Burnt Orange Report, Pink Dome, and In the Pink Texas?
