Object: Freedom of Speech and the Right to Embarrass
Ahhhh, protesters. The sweet sound of raucous malcontents, determined,
however unintentionally, to re-elect George W. Bush!
Why am I so happy to see a bunch of unwashed hooligans, so reminiscent of a
soccer gang or the French Legislative Assembly? Because the crowds of
protesters in New York City this week, are doing exactly what John Kerry and
John Edwards hoped to avoid. They are reminding the nation about the clear
choice at hand.
Kerry, Edwards, Moore, and the leftovers from the Hippie Movement would have
you believe that the war in Iraq is a mistake at best, and protest against
that war is nothing more than reasonable people reacting to unreasonable
policy. Unfortunately for them, the protest groups have no intention of
playing by the Democrats˘ script. Protesters in New York this week remind us
of the ones who tried to block military bases, and who planned and carried
out confrontations with authorities. Many antiwar protesters are bankrolled
by Socialist and Communist groups, whose goal is to disrupt legitimate U.S.
actions.
Some here in New York are silly, and no threat, but some are violent and
dangerous mobs. Many have violent histories, and are essentially violent
criminals when they assemble. And the worst of them all seem to be Leftist.
Also, protesters in New York this week, are largely free to speak their
mind, which reminds us of how the Democrats penned in their protesters. Who,
then, really stands for Free Speech here?
President Bush withstood being compared to Hitler without whining. But John
Kerry wants to ban the book that is embarrassing him, since the book forced
Kerry to retract his "Christmas in Cambodia" story, and admit his first
Purple Heart had nothing to do with combat, and almost nothing to do with a
true injury.
Kerry's embarrassment, in fact, comes from the free speech of honorable men,
showing that the centerpiece of Kerry˘s claim to courage is nothing but
fraud. And all these protesters, free to express themselves as they truly
are, reinforce the difference between the Right and the Left, as clearly as
the difference between Right and Wrong.
Every protest against George W. Bush, in delicious irony, works for his
re-election.

I suggest you look up how Bush had the 'Favourite Son' book pulled
from the shelves before you accuse Kerry of banning anything.
