Look at history. People ahead of their time, or spoke truth to power, have always suffered at the hands of whatever dogma was ruling the day. Reading the biographies of the great thinkers throughout the ages e.g. Thomas Mann's Tonio Kroger (auto biography), one theme always pops up. How they had to spend their lives keeping their mouths shut! The great Montaign once said: "The older I get the less I fear to say what is on my mind". It is important for people to understand, Palin, Hannity, Rush and Beck are not saying anything which is factual, logical or even comprehensible. It is pure psychobable.
