... That's not the point .-.
Military people can't voice their political opinions because they are not suppose to while in uniform. It's really as simple as that. No censorship, no nothing

yet generals can endorse candidates and talk about economics and foreign policy and who they want as president til the sun goes down while in uniform on national tv.
how is it not censorship? they cut him off when he started saying stuff they didnt like.
"i want Ron Paul for president"
" i think we should bring the troops home"
" Israel can take care of its self"
all things the mainstream media hate.

Because that guy there does not formally represent the entire country's military force. The general does.

a general still has to follow the same rules and traditions as a private would, so the generals should recieve the same treatment as a private would. weather its official military business or not, the general has to remain politically neutral as you said. but hell you see tones of military personal "in uniform" at a Newt Gingrich or rick santorum rally, and you dont see anyone raising hell about that.
reason why is because they support the war.

Well, no... A general's opinion isn't really his own, it's suppose reflect the entire military in a very neutral way... And if he doesnt, then it's because America's political system is herp derp
And the only reason why this soldier was censored was because he was doing it... On national television
