Funny how the right wing wraps themselves in the flag, arrogantly boasts America is a 'beacon of freedom', yet call for the punishment or arrest of anyone who speaks out against the war or Pres Bush. Some righties, like Michael Savage, called for war protestors to be taken out and shot. Many right wingers insist questioning Pres Bush and the war gives 'aid and comfort to the enemy'. What this tells me is the right holds distain for dissent- they demand conformity and obedience- (perhaps one reason why radical christians are drawn to bush).
So with the right loathing dissent- what, in right wing world, is freedom? In the real world dissent is a cornerstone of a democracy- but these people oppose dissent. Why does the right hold such contempt for dissent? Funny how the rules change when a democrat is president- The right has no problems with attacking bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter- yet they react with rage if a liberal voices critisism over either Bush, Reagan or Nixon..
