Because Michael Moore is a traitor and should immediately be charged with treason and sedition.
Let us do that.
That first amendment is a major obstacle to
getting this Republic straightened out.
Mr. Senator StatesRights, I salute you!
No I agree w/the Libertarians on a LOT of issues..obviously you've never read any of my posts. But their are times when freedom of speech should have limits. Our current war against terror is a fine example.
Actually, I have read more than a few of your posts.
Although there are occasional points we can disagree upon,
your positions are not ordinarily a contention.
I just picked up on this one because I object.
(Is that ok with you?)
Although I find a lot of MM's views terribly naive and,
in some instances, just plain wrong, he is not worthy of this.
He is not plotting the undoing of the nation.
He is a media man, an overstuffed guy who actually cares.
He weaves his cares into his work, and he does a fair job of it.
With all of that is a load of socialist nonsense and other
nauseating attitudes, but it is his freedom to speak.
And although I disagree vehemently with some of his sick ideas,
I will always defend that right, to criticize what he perceives
as deadly sins in the nations ways, as distorted as it may be.
He is guilty of being wrong, perhaps.
But he is innocent of what you wish to apply to him.
And if you sacrifice our freedom to satisfy your whims,
then you open the floodgates to tides of reasonless passion.
More innocents perish in battles waged in politics
than all the true thugs the world has ever pursued,
If the 'status quo' political system prevails in this end-game,
we can expect to see a lot of innocent folk locked away.
All arrested and shipped off due to flame-point emotionalism
inspired by shrill rhetoric responding to a loss of liberties.
The guilty are not wise and experienced judicial sages,
but rather any hot-headed government lackey who
gets miffed about some 'free-spirit' venting steam.
This is the way liberties get trampled - not by hordes of
brown-shirts tramping in cadence down the street.
Short-circuiting the First Amendment is recipe for catastrophe.
And thus my initial query about a presidential candidate in jail.
These do indeed resemble the 'end of days' self-fulfilling prophecy,
and if my guess is correct, it may not be too long before Bush
sends his goons around to arrest Badnarik.
Who knows, you may get lucky: Bush might just put MM away, too.
