"Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice. Tolerance in the face of tyranny is no virtue."

nice quote, if a bit over-dramatic. You know what would be extreme??? Try the following:

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time
to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." -- Thomas Jefferson

getting joy out of seeing the emperor w/out clothes chastised for his nakedness does not, imho, qualify as extremism. It does bluntly state - if we conservatives were to generally react as such - that the trampling of the 5th is ok as long as we don't like the person.

Let's keep our focus, randog... you know how good the left is at pointing their fingers at us and saying "...if you can do it, then there's nothing wrong with us doing it, too".
