Senator Insists Bush Aides Testify Publicly - New York Times

  • The Democratic senator leading the inquiry into the dismissal of federal
    prosecutors insisted Sunday that Karl

The First Post : Democrats take on Fox

  • The loudmouths at the Fox News studios
    up on Sixth Avenue are warming up for the presidential election.


    Ann Coulter, she of the micro-skirt and acerbic tongue,
    declared former Senator John Edwards, Democratic candidate, a 'faggot' for his
    support of gay rights. Then Roger Ailes, a Republican spinmaster before Rupert
    Murdoch put him in charge of Fox News, made a Barack Obama/Osama bin Laden joke
    in a speech.


    The Democrats said that "went too far" and reacted by spiking
    a televised debate for their primary candidates which was to have been
    co-sponsored and broadcast by Fox in Nevada in August. Edwards, riled by
    Coulter, had already pulled out.


    It is a telling confrontation.

Best First Amendment Explanation Ever (i.e. Ann Coulter and friends are ignorant fools and why)

  • What Coulter and her neocon cronies need to realize is that while they have the
    right to free speech and they can make whatever stupid, offensive remarks they
    want, there are still consequences for doing so.  If you preach hate, and
    you get people hating you in return, don’t be surprised.  Coulter and
    friends need to grow up and accept responsibility for their actions.

     
    The First Amendment gives us the right to free speech, but it
    doesn’t give us a free ride.
