Postings on the FreeRepublic site often urge readers to call the employers of liberals to report their anti-war sentiments

Hmm. I have been a member of this forum and I don't recall seeing anything like this. If it has happened, it is quite rare and hardly qualifies as "often".

We do call people on their actions. We do call for boycotts of products/companies that are represented by people who are not acting in America's best interest.

The Hollyweird crowd has a right say what they want. It is freedom of speech.

We have freedom to peacefully assemble.

If the Hollyweird crowd thinks this is a massive conspiracy, well, fine. It's assembly, nonetheless. The internet has finally given "the little guy" the ability to share points of view that would have otherwise been disconnected. That we can assemble more people, more rapidly, and more cohesively, that makes it wrong? That makes it facist? The freedom to assemble is facist? The freedom to protest other peoples actions which you disagree with is facist? Pardon?

What the left is concerned about is our ideas getting to the masses. In the the arena of ideas and in the arena of what makes common sense, the left doesn't have a prayer...and they know it.

EAGLES UP!
