Palin tops herself by showing shocking ignorance of First Amendment rights
October 31st, 2008 at 02:02pm Pat Cunningham
To hear Sarah Palin tell it, her First Amendment rights to free speech are diminished if the mainstream media take issue with her attacks on Barack Obama.
She seems to think that the Constitution guarantees her the right to say whatever she wants without anybody else claiming the right to disagree with her.
Read about it HERE – and cringe at the thought of this astonishingly ill-educated person being just a heartbeat away from the presidency.

She said:
“then I don’t know what the future of our country would be in terms of First Amendment rights and our ability to ask questions without fear of attacks by the mainstream media.”
To me she is talking about the illegal investigation of Joe the Plummber’s background. Just because you ask a public official a question, you shouldn’t immediately be subject to an intensive background investigation that is published to the nation.
Granted, this isn’t 1st amendment stuff, its probably more 4th amendment stuff. (but what do I know…I’m not a lawyer) Still, the point is noted.
She knows the difference between right in wrong. The cheaters in the Obama campaign do not, or they don’t care.

It’s one thing to know the difference in right from wrong…it’s another thing to practice right from wrong.

Drew - What about all the illegal surveillance of the American public by the Bush administration? Remember the FISA court, and the recent news about illegal wiretapping of US citizens living abroad? I guess you would have to say Bush and Cheney don’t the difference from right and wrong. Right?

Hey
We have a war to win here you pinkos. The Constitution will not stand in the way of that. When Dick Cheney retuned home from Vietnam he swore that we would never lose again.
