(19,926 posts)of the matter is that there are people on here who attempt to stifle any and all criticism of the current administration, no matter what it does, and who then name call the critics and slander them rather than simply debate the policy.
Th quote are there for a purpose. To stress the importance of being allowed to speak out against the govt if it is wrong. That is the basis of democracy and those who try to suppress that are a danger to our democracy.
Sorry if it comes off condescending, but all you have to do is read some sample posts to see the hate filled name calling that gets thrown out at many other DUers by those who have decided to stick their head in the sand and not only ignore facts but refuse to even attempt to discuss anything. I don't see why I should show respect to those who are closed minded apologists whose posts consist mainly of name calling and smilies.
