I thought I asked a question about George Bush and if you favoured him yes or no for President but when I checked my questions it wasn't there! Is this page censored?

I get censored here too for the most BS reasons. One time my answer was "Condi" (that was the entire answer) and I got a violation email within 15 minutes.
Seems to me there are some real nazis running yahoo.

Not exactly... if you read the terms of service your question (or answer) can be removed for almost no reason at all. Some one just has to complain... Yahoo really doesn't pay much attention it self. All it takes is one petty user to complain and you're out.
On the other side there are "questions" that are nothing more that 3rd grade name calling, full of personal insults, lies, false data, aren't even questions, race bateing, and more.
This is a free and open board, and anyone is allowed on, but many are so "Jr. High" that it's annoying.

Yes and no. All questions are subject to Yahoo Terms of Service and Community guidelines, and Yahoo can remove any question that it considers to be in violation of those rules.
However, it's technically not censorship, because Yahoo is a private forum, and you contractually agreed to Yahoo's policies by using the forum. It's only censorship if its imposed against you without your consent, by some external authority (like the govt).
