Like Bill Lear says, David compares 2 different animals. I regard Henry Kissinger as a war criminal, yet nobody will loose their job for inviting him to their campus or for saying that they agree with him.
David says that liberals are not being treated like conservatives. Conservatives do like to play victim & then claim their every one else pretends to be the victim. They also speak of a liberal press. David defends Ann Coulter. She has a right to speak, but what would happen to me if I went on tv & called Bush a fag -- as she did with Edwards? I would think that libertarians would defend the right of all ideas to be defended. The people who are against Israeli policy are not attacking people as Jews -- as Murray's hypothetical speech would attack Blacks. They are saying that the Israeli policy is wrong or in the case of M&W only that support for Israel is not in the US interest. Would anyone suffer consequences for saying that a detente with the USSR is not in the US interest? -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail michael at ecst.csuchico.edu michaelperelman.wordpress.com
