Thomas Jefferson would be telling us to lock n' load right about now.
"Thomas Jefferson would be telling us to lock n' load right about now."
You got that right. Thomas Jefferson would be in jail right now, undergoing psychiatric evaluation, and being ridiculed by a media smear campaign, egged on by local law enforcers. Rush and Hannity would both denounce him, calling themselves 'law and order guys'.
They would have to. If they spoke up for Mr. Jefferson, they would be ostracized by the right. Savage, who knows no one expects him to be rational, would be saying it like it is. Boortz would stand up for law and order. So they'd revert back to nursery rhymes. Yeah nursery rhymes were created to send coded messages across the land, bypassing Royal decrees on what is forbidden to speak about. That's what would happen to talk radio and the internet.
And then, the ultimate: coded messages would be called campaign contributions. The word, 'broomstick' would mean Hillary. Mentioning broomsticks would be a contribution to the RNC.
Just look back to Schiavo [Schindler]. People who broke the law to bring a cup of water were smeared. How much worse for someone who values free speech and freedom of our New Media press?
This is our greatest danger of the moment. Thank you, McCain.
