Democracy Has Prevailed.

April 21, 2006

Via Attytood, I stumbled across this this morning.

Yet another example of the respect shown by this administration to The Constitution. Here's the headline:
Free-speech outrage: Wenyi Wang may be charged with federal crime for daring to criticize the president...of China
Unbelievable.
Last night, officials with the Secret Service, which eventually dragged Wang away and arrested her -- literally seconds after Bush called on China to permit more free speech -- said they are seriously considering charging Wang with an obscure federal offense, intimidating a foreign official.
Un-frickin-believable.

i was talking to my rabid right wing republican friend (yes, i have one, oh lordy) while the clip of the incident was on tv. i asked him about the hypocracy of the whole thing, how could he justify bush's reaction, the government's response to the whole thing etc.

he said, she should have picked a better place to protest, such as the road leading to the event or at the freaking airport!!!!

he said she had no right to embarass bush like that. i just was speechless and walked away for about 5 minutes til i regained some calm.

anon, what does that article have to do with this, other than to go off topic, change the subject, spin off in another direction?

i don't know what some people would do if they couldn't invoke clinton's name. they might have to come up with an independent thought or two.(instead of just "clinton, yadda, yadda...!")

Sherry - I heard Clinton's penis once killed a hecker, but the media reported it as suicide because the heckler was Hillary's lesbian lover.

So obviously we now have to send hecklers to gitmo in order to preserve and defend the freedom of speech because we can't allow Clinton's penis to get away with future murders with OJ Simpson.

djhlights - You forgot to mention that Clinton's penis was on its was to giving away nuclear secrets to China, Iran and N. Korea before killing the heckler and that it had tea with bin Laden afterwards.

Why are you trying to hide the full story?

"When she was arrested, the heckler was charged with disorderly conduct. The spokesman said that charge, under local law, could be brought later."

And what part of that don't you kooks understand? It's called DISORDERLY conduct. Freedom speech doesn't cover disorderly conduct people. Try yelling "fire" in a crowded movie theater and see what happens. Davyoe always likes to nitpick...even to the point of where it makes him look like an idiot.

Yes, the Clenis is all-powerful. :lol:

As far as embarassing Bush, he does a mighty fine job of that all by himself.

Yuck it up now. You won't be laughing when you are part of a naked human pyramid at Gitmo.
