Ted, > Can you give us an example of when a conservative has been silenced?

Ways to effectively silence the opposition:

- Putting words into the mouths of your opponents
- Arguing against straw men (similar to the above)
- Play the race card
- Make ad hominem attacks
- Attack the qualifications, education, experience of your oppenents
- Censorship via omission

Some liberal somewhere told Rush to shut up.

Well, actually no, some conservatives are telling Cheney to shut up. Does that make them you-shut-up conservatives?
