Some of us down here take our First Amendment very seriously.

now if only that were the reason for the post,
your own allen west is all for censuring the  media outlets  for wikileaks
thats ok tho????
im so sorry your widdle feelings are hurt
free speech, a bitch huh[8|]





Why would you even type such nonsense, Lucy? I'm damn sure we've touched on free speech before, and I'm consistently clear about where I stand on that. The answer to free speech used badly, is more speech, not censorship.

Of course, I also have a leaning towards laws that fine you $25 for punching a flag burner (or a member of Westboro Baptist), support prosecuting anybody who shouts 'fire' in a crowded theater, and I think there are very good reasons to have classified information. At least with US law, Assange is free to his artwork, commemorating what a miserable shit of human being he is, but I believe he needs to pay a stiff price for using such sensitive, stolen, raw materials.

With 250,000 pages to dig through, I'm hoping he can set off on a world tour of countries that have cruel and unusual punishments for simply repeating something bad that someone else said about king.

General rule of thumb, Lucy. Anybody calling for censorship because they disagree with an opinion, isn't mine. Not unless they are in my crosshairs, and I'm calling the target.

I love how they blame Fox News and not 40+ years of the liberal dominated public education system...just sayin'


I love how conservatives blame the liberal-dominated public education system for their lack of knowledge when liberals attended the same schools...just sayin'.


What I hate about the liberal school that I have attended (one of the tho not the sole reason for my departure) was that the instructors told us in the class that they should spit on soldiers cause Viet Nam was their fault.    I failed to pass any question in any test, teacher found out I was military at the time.   Just sayin   Another reason was that if you disagreed with the teacher they found a way to fail you.   Even when they asked for your opinion.



For some reason that sounds like bullshit to me

Pot calling the kettle grimy arse.
you are wanting everyone to agree with you on free speech, but cmon thats not the way it works, this situation with wikileaks has a lot of people confused and torn between freedom of expression, security and safety and lack of all of the above.
attacking the poster and not the post was what happened,  because he is not american.
I was commenting on that fact.
would you like me to supply you with Allen Wests office number?

What else do you expect from a "this happened to somebody I know" story on a forum where everybody hides behind a false name?



DomYngBlk -> RE: Fox News is detrimental to your intelligence (12/17/2010 6:02:10 AM)

I don't know. A better attempt at lying well?



Moonhead -> RE: Fox News is detrimental to your intelligence (12/17/2010 6:05:25 AM)

In here? You're asking for the moon on a stick, mate...

I know the email address assignment protocol for that body, Lucy. If I decide he needs to hear from me, I don't want to talk to an intern.

With a bit of luck, he'll attend Justice Scalia's seminar on the Constitution, and adjust his future rhetoric.

I believe he has already walked back his comments  Rich to be  fair:)
enjoy your day

Today is the big Christmas lunch, Lucy, meaning I get to spend several hours in a car with co-workers, don't get to wear jeans and a casual shirt, and won't find anything I like on the buffet table, but thanks for the thought.



Lucylastic -> RE: Fox News is detrimental to your intelligence (12/17/2010 7:01:04 AM)

You have my sympathies, I would rather poke out my eyes with a big sharp pointy stick than spend your day.
tis the season to be jolly ho ho ho
