2. Uh, the GOP is destroying the first amendment as we speak |
|

3. Who will be prevented from speaking? |
|
That's the answer.
The only people prevented from speaking without it are unions, leftists, atheists, gays, women, and other groups that have been under attack with no access even to tell how they feel about it.
To hell with these right wingers.

that 80% of Americans agree with him. He has country and western stars singing patriotic songs all summer long. Is there any legitimate reason that you and me My Dear should have the right to free speech. Why, its just incomprehensible. I truly appreciate my Green Party Voter. She counterbalances my occasional dips into insanity.
