there is a cost to anything, and free speech is worth a high cost.


On that we agree.

Be sure to keep us informed regarding the ACLU inevitable lawsuits.

FAIRFAX, VA. - I was among those who journeyed to a Washington, D.C., suburb on Feb. 10 to hear John Kerry's Virginia primary victory speech. He said most of the right things until he asked people not to boo Bush, that his campaign was going to take the high road.

This was an event at a local college that allowed Bush supporters to wave their signs among the Kerry signs. At every Republican rally I have ever been forced to hold my nose and cover as a journalist, the Republicans have never allowed Democrats to wave their signs. In fact, at one Bush fund-raiser in Dallas last year, Democrats who wanted to protest his appearance were forced to stand outside in the hot sun on a roped-off street corner, while Bush schmoozed the zillionaires inside the air-conditioned hotel for more money in peace and quiet.
