How I muzzled Dr.Laura -and saved Free Speech

Some time ago Dr. Laura, the radio shrink, was turning me off

    with her nagging self-righteous , authoritarian tone. So I

    turned HER off.

          Now I am alarmed at this organized campaign - gay rights,of course !-

    to muzzle her. It is ominous to hear people say that the right not

    to be offended  is more important than FREE SPEECH .

            I wonder : Is the democratic ideal in decline everywhere despite

    the dizzy enthusiasm for Free Enterprise ?

            Fear of Free Speech is - in the final analysis- fear of the

    common people ,  and a rejection of the American Way .

            Fight crazy ideas with SANE ideas - not with censorship !
