No Doubt About It, the Left Is Working to End Freedom of Speech

The Left's spirited campaign to restrict freedom of speech is gaining speed with every day. Using bubble zones against pro-lifers, a wicked distortion of "hate crimes" against those who teach the Bible's condemnation of homosexuality, false charges of racism against conservatives in general, trying to fintimidate Fox News and, of course, laying the groundwork for comprehensive censorship of the Right, so-called liberals are doing everything they can to shut up contrary voices.

Matthew Balan from NewsBusters gives a striking example of CNN's latest tirade against conservative talk radio. CNN's attack was a pretty desperate one (they typically are) using not only the typical "Fairness Doctrine" justifications but also a screwball psychiatrist who theorized that Rush Limbaugh has an audience because he’s “operating like the bully, and if you’re on the playground...you want to be...under the bully’s wing and go along with him and get...some power by proxy.”
