NAACP Chairman Julian Bond in a recent speech said, “Their (Republicans) idea of equal rights is the American flag and the Confederate swastika flying side by side They’ve written a new constitution for Iraq and ignore the Constitution here at home. They draw their most rabid supporters from the Taliban wing of American politics. Now they want to write bigotry back into the Constitution.”
Actor Alec Baldwin on The Conan O’Brien Show, condemning the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee, “If we were in other countries, we would all right now, all of us together — all of us together would go down to Washington and we would stone Henry Hyde to death! We would stone him to death! Wait!… I’m not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and their children! We would kill their families!”
USA Today columnist Julianne Malveaux in discussing Justice Clarence Thomas on a PBS TV show, “I hope his wife feeds him lots of eggs and butter and he dies early like many black men do, of heart disease. … He is an absolutely reprehensible person.” - hawkeye17, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3There's a big difference between 'free speech' and the 'hate speech' Beck and other Right Wing talking heads use regularly. Your Free to speak in this country but your also liable for the fallout that comes from your words. THAT is what is being missed by most of the 'free speech' people defending Imus, Beck, et al.

- Koros8, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Please Franken, shut up before you hurt yourself! If you cannot handle someone like Glenn Beck without calling for him to be fired because he hurt your feelings, then get your rat ass out of politics! Go back to playing Stewart Smiley where you are safe from people like little 'ol Glenn.
