Why does the left hate free speech?

There certainly is a generational shift in the GOP - quite a shift:

The new GOP logo.

Ah yes, the Nazis. That comparison adds so much drama yet so little substance. Just what the GOP needs to accelerate their journey to nowhere. Good job!

How did we ever imagine we could avoid the vitriol that fuels the Republican political machine? Why are we surprised at the number of hate-filled disciples who cheer on the most outrageous, virulent and insubstantial of standard bearers? Nevertheless it is rather surprising that, at a time of great economic and strategic peril, a party furious about losing Congress and the White House and in an absolute frenzy to advance its political goals would pursue an unabashedly partisan agenda whatever the cost.

And that of course is the point. Republicans, most especially the conservative wing, keep saying they want President Obama to fail. And try as they might to claim it is only his policies they do not support, the reality is that if his policies fail the country fails as well. No amount of flag lapel pins or flag-draped platforms can mask the underlying fallacy that theirs is a patriotic endeavor to protect the nation from massive debt and European-style socialism.

The old punch and judy show is pretty lame.

But BD, you know as well as I do that once the words Hitler or Nazi are thrown in the person who uttered such is the winner of the conversation

I really REALLy wish people would stop making references to Hitler and the Nazis. It was ridiculous when it was done to Bush and it's ridiculous when done to Obama.

Anyone can find a youtube video to support whatever point they want to make. It doesn't prove much, in the great scheme of things.

They are both interesting discussions, not to prove a point.
