Unfettered free speech is not allowed in the US and never has been. For insatance shouting fire in a crowded movie house is a crime. And a group getting together and plotting how to commit a crime is called criminal conspiracy. Nambla has never been challenged on their right to free speech but rather on their criminal conspiracy to commit statutory rape.
Suigener is wrong about sentencing. Judges can and do use their discretion. One example I sight in the source box tells of a man who continually raped a girl from the time she was 7 till she was 10. He could have gotten life, the prosecutors asked for 8 to 20 years but the judge gave him 60 days.
And Stuart called the writer uneducated and a liar and went on in length discussing a subject even he admitted ignorance to. (The existance of Nambla)
Jive Man mentioned one email a republican sent to a page. They never went out or had sex. His fellow republicans forced him out. Gary Studds a democrat from Ma was caught in the act of having sex with an underage page and not only wasn't forced out he served 6 more terms. Barney Frank another Ma dem had an underage male prostitution ring being run out of his house and he is still in office.
And lastly since not one neolib ever did answer the writer's question I will. Because they are hypocrites. They passed a renewal of the violence against women act but the dems voted down an amendment to add children.See source box below)

Today's Democrat Party is based on the concept of getting as many people as possible dependent on the government, rather than doing what they can to make them strong and independent.

"Conservative" and "Liberal" have very different, nonpolitical meanings when it comes to the law, and judges in particular.
Think of it this way:
In the law, Conservative generally means following the "letter of the law," i.e. what the law actually says.
"Liberal" generally means following the "spirit of the law," i.e. the percieved intent of the law.
Whether a person is "liberal" or "conservative" in a legal sense has nothing to do with whether or not they are a Democrat or a Republican.
You can find concrete examples of this in Supreme Court jurisprudence - some 'conservative' justicies believe in following what the U.S. Constitution actually says, while more 'liberal' justices consider it a dynamic, 'living' document which should have more flexibility to apply to modern times.

Help us understand where you draw a connection between Democrats' support of child education and welfare laws and elected officials imposing state-mandated sentences to convicted felons?
Help us understand where you draw any correlation between the Democratic party and the American Civil Liberties Union?
Help us understand what and where the "The North American Man-Boy Love Assoc" is?

if you crack down on the predators, there will be no conservatives left to run or vote in the next election, and the liberals like to have someone to run against.

You are uneducated. VERY uneducated.
Here's a place to start: Read up on the ACLU. They are not there to take up causes that they think are good. They are straight down the line on the side of civil rights. They do not make judgement calls about what Americans DESERVE civil rights; they operate under the premise that EVERY American deserves them. You might not agree with that, or you might not mind if someone's rights are violated if you think they are bad people. I understand the impulse to think like that but it is very short-sighted. Educate yourself about what would happen if the government went unchecked re: civil rights... you would be directly effected before too long.

You don't get it and never will.
The ACLU protects free speech, no matter how unpopular that speech is, but you are unwilling to see that.
Also, your sweeping generalization (it's "always" a liberal judge - that means 100% in my book) is ignorant and biased. Are you repeating something you heard on a pundit show? We know how reliable (conservative and liberal) those are for facts. . . . . .

Right. All these "liberal" judges appointed by the Bush administration.
Please, don't even bring up child predators. Exactly how many GOP leaders have been caught chasing after boys this year alone? Why don't you anti-liberal types concentrate on getting rid of your own pederasts among the conservative clergy and government before you start taking potshots at the Left.

Do you always see things so black and white?
Thats the problem with this country - people like you see things in party lines. Nothing gets accomplished because it just becomes Dems vs Repubs and nothing actually gets accomplished.
