The current generational iteration of the self-loathing American that is organizing Sunday’s impolite disruption undoubtedly are already well versed in Marx, Lenin, Mao, Fidel and their latest political icon and role model, Hugo Chavez. Perhaps a Che poster or two remains on an apartment wall, above the unwashed dishes and burned out bowl.</I><BR/><BR/>Do I detect a bit of the ad hominem in that paragraph?<BR/><BR/>I also remember nothing in the First Amendment about "everybody gets to put their ideas in the marketplace", nor anything about a "social contract". The First Amendment disallows the government, more specifically, the Congress from denying free speech. There are no warm, fuzzy promises that everyone has to shut up and listen.<BR/><BR/>Typical conservative whining and crying.
