38. Oh for heaven's sake, Glenn. her 1st amendment rights have not been violated.

until the government comes after her for her racial slurs, she is free to be as racist as her career will allow...and the PRIVATE corporations with which she does business are free to terminate their relationship with her based on the terms of their contract.

Plus, there's also that whole 1st amendment freedom of association thingy that protects them as well.

but they'll keep harping about democracy even though these are private decisions being made by private individuals over their own business ventures.

kind of how free market capitalism works, right?

can't have it both ways.
