So much for free speech.

Remember Chappaquiddick!' Student hollers phrase as Kennedy begins on-campus speech
Student under fire for shout:
'Remember Chappaquiddick!'
Self-described liberal hollers phrase as Kennedy begins on-campus speech

A community college student in Massachusetts faces possible disciplinary action for shouting "Remember Chappaquiddick!" during an on-campus speech by Democrat Sen. Edward Kennedy.
Paul Trost, 20, a student at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass., says he was upset by an introduction of Kennedy given by Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., in which the congressman noted how the long-time senator overcame hardship in life on his way to success.
Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.
"Lynch said Kennedy had overcome such adversity to get to the place he was, and that's a bunch of bull," Trost said of the introduction, which occurred in the school's student center Tuesday morning.
Just as Kennedy began speaking, Trost was walking out of the room when he shouted, "Remember Chappaquiddick!"
"Most of the crowd gasped," Trost said. "Then I walked out of the student center."
The student says a campus police officer went outside and stopped him. He also saw some state troopers go outside, the type who accompany Kennedy around the state to provide security.
Trost says the cop took down his information and told him he would be hearing from school officials about disciplinary action. A spokesman with the campus police verified the incident but stressed that Trost was not arrested.
The student said one of his teachers confronted him after a class about the Chappaquiddick issue.

re: The real definition is that anyone who is insufficiently pro-Bush is a liberal. Just like anything in the media that isn't sufficiently pro-administration "proves" that the media is dominated by leftists.

Amazing part is that it works pretty well.


That's because the word, liberal, has become a dirty word in this country. Like with everything there are good and bad aspects to being liberal, but what we forget is that liberalism gave us the Bill of Rights, an end to slavery, A. Lincoln, FDR.........the list is a long one.
