Jewish blogger has her PayPal account pulled

Judith Geller who writes a blog called Atlas Shrugged which is anti-Obama, and pro-Israel, is having her PayPal account pulled.
    "However, after a recent review of your account, it has been determined that you are currently in violation of PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy. Under the Acceptable Use Policy, PayPal may not be used to send or receive payments for items that promote hate, violence, racial intolerance or the financial exploitation of a crime."
I only occasionally read her site, but it's only "hate" if you are a pro-Obama, tingle up the leg supporter or racially intolerant if you think Israel has a right to exist, or believe that there are Islamic Jihadists in the U.S. and Britain.

It's getting dicey. We now live in a country where the President can demonize private foreign companies, steal our money (40% of BP investors are Americans), reinstate McCarthy era interrogation teams to brutalize CEOs, and give our tax money to unions (which is probably where the 20 billion will go), hire tax cheats like Ginthner, and Communists like Van Jones and Anita Dunn as advisers, expand his bevy of Czars, a President who thinks all white people think a certain way and have prejudice "bred" into them, and that police and governors of border states act foolishly even before he gets the facts. And remember, he didn't meet with BP officials, in fact initially he said he wouldn't because he knew what they thought, until after he went on national TV and castigated them. This is not a steel trap mind; it's a locked dungeon.

Can PayPal revoke the President's account? Like the one that takes our tax money?

I don't use PayPal ever for anything. But if I did, I'd protest by not using it. It's a private company and it can set its own rules. But you have to wonder who's behind this, since usually private companies care about making money.

Update: PayPal reverses its decision. Geller is now using a different service. PayPal is owned by E-bay.
