Employers have the COURT APPROVED right to censor
speech and activity in the work place.

After an uproar from conservative bloggers and free-speech activists,
the Transportation Security Administration late Tuesday rescinded a
new policy that would have prevented employees from accessing websites
with "controversial opinions" on TSA computers at work.
The ban on "controversial opinion" sites, issued late last week, was
included as part of a more general TSA Internet-usage policy blocking
employee access to gambling and chat sites, as well as sites that
dealt with extreme violence or criminal activity.
But the policy itself became controversial as the Drudge Report and a
number of conservative bloggers highlighted the possibility that the
policy could be used to censor websites critical of the agency or of
the Obama administration in general. The American Civil Liberties
Union also questioned the language.
"Conservative bloggers" coming to THE DEFENSE of FEDERAL EMPLOYEES to
surf the web, spending FEDERAL MONEY, during the time they are
supposed to be working?
