This Boykin thing is getting getting under my skin. This guy has put his life on the line for this nation, and now he's under attack for exercising his freedom of speech and religion. The fact that a major TV network and a major newspaper would be behind this smear of a true hero I find abominable.

This is just the latest example of the attempt by those who want to warp the American Way into a charicature of the Bill of Rights. The same people who would put a speech code on all conservatives and Christians are the ones who wouldn't lift a hand after the repeated attacks on Americans throughout the 1990s and who dived for cover after 9/11, but they're back in full throat, trying to sap the strength of this nation to preserve itself. They'll be enraged at this accusation, but we've just seen what happens if they get authority in California, which basically has spent itself into insolvency. They are the ones screaming that the recall was an attack on democracy, but I don't see Californians flocking to Venezuela or Brazil, where politicians closer to the socialist ideal have taken power.

You'd think that 9/11 and the budget meltdown in the Golden State would put this madness to rest, but the major media haven't seem to learn a thing. I guess it's up to the rest of us to make the case.
