Will the Obama Administration condemn the Piss Christ and ask the Edward Tyler Nahem Gallery to not display it or to remove it from display? Will the State Department and the Secretary of State do likewise? Will there be an television advertisement denouncing the vile abusive artistic piece produced and fielded on national television? Will the National Endowment for the Arts be prohibited from funding Piss Koran?
Inquiring minds want to know? The polls were not skewed, biased, oversampled or wrong. I was. There was no wave, no landslide, I was wrong about that too. Nate Silver is the gold standard of polling analysis.

Unless it's the right of freedom of speech only as long as it conforms only to what "someone" determines to be proper and allowable... Apparently there's no future in BHO's world for anyone who offends the muslims, and the muslims are now advocating for laws prohibiting them from being offended. Apparently BHO is in their corner on that one. |

Let's hope that this will be an impetus to roll back the infringement upon Free Speech, instead of what currently looks like an impetus to infringe upon Free Speech even more. May I suggest a organization to support in defense of Free Speech. The International Free Press Society [internationalfreepresssociety.org] Last edited by EscapeVelo; 09-25-2012 at 09:12 PM.. |

How did you possibly get that from his speech? He clearly said that the right of freedom of speech should be protected. He didn't say "we should prosecute people who insult islam". If you think that's what he said, then you're delusional. No matter how helpful the feature, how easy it is to disable, or how good your intentions, someone somewhere will hate it and think you're a monster for implementing it.- Anonymous Developer

Freedom of speech allows me to publicly criticize the company for which I work. But it doesn't protect me from being fired for running my mouth.
