The laws *allowed* people to talk like that ["Sr Bush actually said on CSPAN that women should stay at home with their children."] back then. Sounds wrong today though doesn't it?

No, it sounds like free speech, no matter how stupid. This after you said

"NBC and National Geography seem to be discouraging freedom of speech [for firing Peter Arnett]."

Peter Arnett said something disagreeable and was fired by his employers. Likewise Bush pere said something disagreeable and was fired by his employers. Because you disagree with the war, you think it was a free speech issue that Arnett was fired, but because you disagree with something Bush pere said, you think he shouldn't be "allowed" to say it. What a hypocrite. Your Silicon Valley startup never made a dime and needs to go bankrupt, like Larry Ellison said.
