so in America, in your opinion, it is fair game to not let the other person speak because you don’t agree with him. I don’t live in that America...YET. It is heading that way though with people like you. How about letting the stupid person talk and then you get up and show where he is wrong and express your better idea? Did that ever cross your mind? How stupid was it for a minority of men to stand up and say stupid things like , lets go to war with England and become a free nation. In those days, that was considered a stupid idea, until it happened.

In America, in historical fact, it has always been the case that politicians and their mouthpieces have been either cheered or booed. Sometimes riotously. A more recent example that is especially germane to this latest reality check would be the Goldwaterites who roundly booed Rockefeller off the stage in '64.

Although I wasn't alive at the time, were I there I would have sided with Goldwater and booed Rockefeller down. Northeastern liberals with an (R) after their names are not just useless - they are destructive to liberty - the knife in the back of Conservatism.
