On The One Hand...
...we have a perfectly legal effort, through rules and words, by conservative members of the Senate to limit (not avoid, just limit) debate on judicial nominees and it is considered "stifling" dissent.
On the other hand...
On the other hand...
- ...Anne Coulter, Bill Kristol, and David Horowitz have been hit in the face with pies while making speeches.
- Pat Buchanan got essentially the same treatment with salad dressing
On the one hand...
...we have an art exhibit that implicitly threatens the life of the President of the United States of America (such threats are a crime) being properly investigated by law enforcement agencies of the federal government.
On the other hand...
...we have an art exhibit depicting heroic acts by our men and women in uniform being protested to the point of physically intimidating potential visitors.
Also on the other hand...
- ...we have self induced vomiting at a recruiting session for homeland security.
- persons committing vehicular assault over a Bush/Cheney bumper sticker.
Do I really need to go on? So...would someone please tell me which political persuasion/party is the one of tolerance and free speech and which one is not.
