I feel our freedom of speech is already seriously curtailed. We have to be PC.

If one calls it like they see it we are labeled. If you speak negativley about the President you're a racist for example. I'm not advocating any type of hate speech here. But I do think that anyone that calls em like they see em is typically labeled. There is no longer any dialogue. All we do is take sides and whomever is in power is able to portray the opposing side as an enemy to the American way.

One thing you have to say for the ACLU, they'll defend anybody.

Having to be politically correct is not a government restriction, it's a societal one. Got nothing to do with the first amendment.

How do governments work these days? I wold offer that the US government works more often in channeling our tax dollars in ways that cause societal change. We're talking about a government that spends 18 million dollars to spiff up recovery.gov

A website that is doing nothing more than attempting to rewrite history to further the public opinion that the bailout and stimulous dollars are actually being used in a manner that benefits us. BS.
