Does anyone believe in free speech anymore?

Looks like it's not just Democrats who have a problem with free speech.



They could have been much harsher with her, you know. Just remember what happened to Ahmad Bhatebe, Carol Kreck, and count yourself lucky. You wanna inhale excrement? Then pay the fuckin' ticket and do what your told.

You gotta love that logic. Take that, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. We're America, bitch. We do what we want.

"I know their sacrifice was not for nothing. It was not in vain."

Hotair alerts me to this BBC report that the bodies of two U.S. servicemen, who came up missing during an ambush immediately after the surge began, have been found.

"Spc Alex Jimenez and Pte Byron Fouty had been listed as missing since they were seized in an ambush in May 2007 in an area south of Baghdad.

The body of a third soldier, Pte Joseph Anzack Jr, was found in the Euphrates river a short time after the attack.

The Islamic State of Iraq, a group that includes al-Qaeda in Iraq, had released a video saying it killed all three men...

Pte Fouty's stepfather, Gordon Dibler, said the military told him the remains of both soldiers were found in the village of Jurf as Sakhr, south of Baghdad, Associated Press news agency reported.

Spc Jimenez's father, Ramon, told AP that the news had 'shattered all hope' the family had to 'see Alex walk home on his own'.

'Byron went to Iraq to help people who couldn't help themselves,' said Mr Dibler. 'I know their sacrifice was not for nothing. It was not in vain.'"

Rest in peace, boys. We honor your sacrafice.

Change we can believe in?

Hotair has the story about House and Senate Democrats trying to regulate speech by legislators' in forums like Youtube and blogs.

Thadeus McCotter (R-MI), to his credit, decided to answer with a video.



Is limiting free speech really change Democrats can believe in?

Maybe Nancy Pelosi and Diane Feinstein need to embrace change we can all believe in and honestly debate and discuss with colleagues with whom they don't always see eye to eye.

Isn't that the whole point?

As the great Linda Richman might say:

"The branches of Congress are a deliber-a-tive chamba' fa the expression of often strawng disawgreement about impo-tant matta's of public paw-licy. Discuss amongst ya'selves."
