No you don't, you demented old bat. You do have a right not to be treated as a traitor by the government, unless you actually have committted treason under the strict Constitutional definition, and that is all.
The First Amendment does not shield people from unofficial but public criticism for their words or deeds. Private citizens, associations, newspapers, or any other non-governmental entity have a perfect constitutional right to express their opinions.
So, in my opinion, Martha Burke Tressler of Park Forest, Illinois, is a low-down dirty traitor.

True neo-cons, as a rule, are most interested in matters of trade and foreign policy, and rather squishy and indifferent on hot-button domestic social issues.
They are often former Scoop Jackson Democrats who advocate a muscular unilateralist position in foreign affair, with strong support for Israel and other outposts of Western civilization.
Because so many of them are Jewish, the word has been taken up as a cudgel by the more clever sort among the anti-Zionist Left, and used as a euphemism for "Jews".
The rest of the liberal dumbasses just ape it as a derogatory term for anyone whose politics are too right wing for their taste. I think this hag falls into the latter category.

Many big corporations employ Cultural Anthropologists to study the dynamics of the workplace, specifically how to implement change. A more practical application is for HR specialists who serve international clients.
I used to work with a lot of expatriates in my last job and that degree came in very handy working to prepare people for dealing with different cultaural settings.
My amazement is how one can live to be 72 years old and remain so ignorant as to how the world works. Pathetic.
My wife is 72. Does this make her a "hag"?
// Translation...I can say whatever I want, and you should only be able to respond in a manner that I approve of.
Yup, I prefer the clarity of your gritty translation.
Either that, or be turned to stone...
Well, you can become the second highest rated afternoon drive-time AM talk-radio DJ in Chicago...
Guess I have to move the whole family out of there now, but where? All those caskets will NOT fit in my garage!
And for the record; as long as she's there - I refuse to die!
