And a President has got to protect that. People ought to be allowed to speak the way you want to speak. But there are limits. And it is very important for our society to work with those that push the limits without abridging anybody else's freedom to speak." Of note: "BUT THERE ARE LIMITS."

When Jar-Jar Young, posting under his 'Trace' sockpuppet, posted the poo about Hillary, it was with regard to privacy and having that privacy invaded absurd as President Clusterf***. You are welcome to put "george bush" "limits to freedom" into a search engine to see just how popular the phrase really was. I knew of the phrase, and I used Google.

Hell, as sheltered as you are, I'll bet you don't even know about him saying he'd prefer a dictatorship, as long as *he was the dictator. Now, the point is proven. You are welcome, like a good lemming, to continue performing whatever level of verbal fellatio you'd like on Shrub. -- -Donald in Austin AA #2104 Apatriot #22 Atheist FF-EMT ....and ordained minister Stork pin recipient: May 1, 2003 -Madelyn -Mr. Worf, set phasers on "f*** You" and fire at will. -Doc Smartbutt
