Michael Savage ...And thats an understatement Ross. Michael Savage (who I link to on the right) often times laments that back in the day, <i>true liberals</i> would say 'I don't agree with what you say, but I would fight to the death your right to say it'. They arent saying that anymore. In this country, numerous people that disagree with Obama are being painted with the broadest brush possible by those on the left and are being classified as racists when the entire substance of their arguements is purely about policy and raise no other issues.J Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746127431922685446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434842591971703006.post-61015935707971981022009-09-29T18:09:10.728-07:002009-09-29T18:09:10.728-07:00What gets me about some (but not all) people on th...What gets me about some (but not all) people on the left is that they like to make themselves out to be the guardians of tolerance and fairness, but when someone opposes or questions them they can be quite vitriolic.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827731848618933239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434842591971703006.post-61486591573665288972009-09-29T13:51:18.864-07:002009-09-29T13:51:18.864-07:00Very insightful Tracy.

Obama supporters are almost always on the left side of the political spectrum. I always thought it was the leftists who were the guardians of free-speech. I'm a bit perplexed.J Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746127431922685446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434842591971703006.post-47138588547796529622009-09-29T12:54:02.814-07:002009-09-29T12:54:02.814-07:00OK, I laughed at Ross's comment.

I don't know the specifics about the situation with the mall Kiosk, but it does seem that while liberals can say whatever they want, conservatives frequently are punished.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15692160455833039396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4434842591971703006.post-1031145023896459462009-09-29T05:41:59.622-07:002009-09-29T05:41:59.622-07:00All things in moderation Ross.
