commentary to radio stations
people on this board are quick with the commentary. I was wondering if
these people email their comments all the time to stations like Cuba and China telling them what they think ????? imagine emailing RHC to tell them they are a bunch of hypocrites etc. |
We take our freedom for granted every day, and I'm the world's worst.
So many have sacrificed so much just so we can have the right to criticize our leaders and our government. Thank you vets. |

What did they think they were defending? Their right to criticize you and your right to liberally spew! -- 73 Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!

Think about what you just wrote and when you see the illogical assertion, let me know. I can give you a hint, if needed. It does get silly around here jd. I tried to spell it out a little for him. Maybe he's so far left that he believes us conservatives have no right to free speech? -- 73 Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!

And I'm not going to solve the world's problems until I get the United States' problems settled and there are just all /sorts/ of people who don't think I have all the answers. Their loss; the United States' loss; the world's loss. And my wife keeps asking why I haven't straightened out the United States like she told me to do. The Sergeant |

Brother Stair sometimes takes calls, and every once in a while someone calls him a hypocrite. It's well worth hearing!! Frank Dresser |
"-=jd=-" wrote in message Well, Brian, the cat's out of the bag now! Seriously, I find it particularly perplexing when someone complains their right to free speech trumps someone else's right to free speech. It usually surfaces from someone with a liberal viewpoint. For instance: The Dixie-Chick(s) start "singing the blues" when they realize that the right to express an opinion works both ways. That they never considered someone's right to free speech could include advocating a boycott of their products reeks of either rank naivety, or extreme eliteism. Tim Robbins - How dare someone else use their right of free speech to criticize me. Michael Moore - Same thing. John "Two-Face" Kerry - Same thing. J. Garafolo(?) - Same Thing etc. etc. etc... Now, I'm sure such vocal proponents of free speech and public debate DO NOT have any intent to strip those same rights away anyone else. It's just very difficult to try and understand the mind-set that on the one hand is a most vociferous supporter of free-speech, yet routinely equates any free speech criticism directed at them as somehow different from their right to criticize... You nailed it jd!. Liberals hate to be critiqued in any way shape or form. It hurts their sence of moral superiority ;) Oh yea? You don't mind if I barrow your {MIKE TERRY PROTECTION }devise? Do ya? :)) -- 73 Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!

Look at the Bush Administration's suggesting that criticizing the war is treasonous while at the same time insisting they're in it for freedom's sake. AND it's not only the elites-the average guy seems to be all for free speech as long as it's his free speech and not anybody else's, an attitude which allows the elite to get away with it. There's a reason that free speech is the first of the rights guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. |

There's a reason that free speech is the first of the rights guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. It's no different than what I said earlier - There's nothing constitutionally wrong with defeatist remarks about either the war on terrorism or the troops in harms way. There's also nothing constitutionally wrong with anyone else criticizing those defeatist remarks as damaging to the moral of those very troops and encouraging to the enemy. So, you think it's wrong when someone else points out the impact of defeatist rhetoric as if it's oppression -yet- by your very demands, you are insisting counter opinions be either outright suppressed or given less weight. I just find it difficult to understand the logic behind that interpretation of free-speech... -=jd=- -- My Current Disposable Email: (Remove YOUR HAT to reply directly) I'm missing a post here jd. who you responding too?
