Welcome to Free Republic, 1/24.

This letter writing campaign is not a restriction on speech -- it is fighting speech with more speech; trust me -- I'm a published law student (2L) will a specialty in 1st Amendment Law (my law review note is on the subject).

This is the first amendment at work -- fighting speech you don't like with more speech.

OK OK OK, It is obvious I need to read my postings more carefully before I hit the button. I agree with you 100%. I did not mean in any way that a letter writing campaign would infringe on his free speech. I misinterpreted the original post and thought the writer was suggesting someone take legal action to stop him. That is what I was disagreeing with, but in reading the original posting again I see that is NOT what the poster was suggesting. I think letter writing, demonstrations, political action, etc by Republicans in the last 4 years has made a huge difference in the dynamic of the election process. It has pissed off the Democrats because they don't own that territory anymore, and it made all the difference in Florida in 2000. I support it enthusiastically!!!!!!
