Free Speech includes the right to exercise it badly, Skippy.
Additionally, from what I know of Fire's activities, I am prepard to overlook a few grammatical imperfections on the part of Mr. Halverson.

Well, gee whiz guys - I know Thor is on the conservative side here, and nothing I said is intended to imply I want to abridge his right to free speech. How could you come to that conclsuion ??

Of course, he can exercise that right "badly" if he chooses to do so. Perhaps it was an inadvertent mistake, a hip-shot slip of the tongue. I sure hope so.

It's just that spokesmen for any cause are far more effective when they speak and write articulately - and when it's a cause I believe in personally, I want them to be as articulate and effective as possible. Can you imagine Patrick Henry making such a statement ??

Thor's gaffe is more than a 'grammatical imperfection,' it is a complete malaprop a la Yogi Berra.

Lighten up - where's your sense of humor ??
