It's not a journalist who guarantees a free press, it's a soldier

Yesterday, Ezra Levant of the Western Standard became a national news story--it seems he has decided to run the Danish cartoons that have caused so much turmoil in Muslim countries.

Levant’s reasoning is that it’s an issue of freedom of the press. He chided a CBC reporter, glibly declaring himself a newsman, not Oprah Winfrey. He made the same points on CTV and of course, he was given the radio airwaves through the talk show hosts.

However, there are a few issues that have been left out and need to be considered.

Good on Ezra to soldier on free speech unlike our wimp @$$ed foreign minister. If our government comprised of only Ezra's we would have some common sense which seemed to be lacking today.

I like the title because it's sssoooo true but that fact escapes the liberal leftist press.

The fact hasn't "escaped" them so much as they ignore it, since they haven't been able to successfully bury it...
