Liberalism is just arrogance - the idea that cheap talk is better than action, that if you don't have facts on your side the only important question is whether or not you can change the subject.

The First Amendment in particular, and the Constitution in general, are predicated on equality of citizens under law. That's not good enough for the liberal; liberals are better than you and me.

"Are the hundreds of political blogs that have sprouted over the last few years—twenty-first-century versions of the Revolutionary era’s political pamphlets—“press,” and thus exempt from FEC regulations? Liberal reform groups like Democracy 21 say no. “We do not believe anyone described as a ‘blogger’ is by definition entitled to the benefit of the press exemption,” they collectively sniffed in a brief to the FEC. “While some bloggers may provide a function very similar to more classical media activities, and thus could reasonably be said to fall within the exemption, others surely do not.” The key test, the groups claimed, should be whether the blogger is performing a “legitimate press function.” But who decides what is legitimate? And what in the Constitution gives him the authority to do so?"

Isn't it amazing how easily they rationalize their efforts to control information by denying the entire population of this nation the First Amendment Rights they so eagerly and frequently invoke?
