Bob Beckel is a smarmy scumsucking weasel who apparently doesn't understand the First Amendment.

No one is suggesting that HT should be JAILED because of her speech. THAT is what the First Amendment protects, and rightfully so.

That doesn't protect her "right" to a job - there is no such right.

It's perfectly OK for Hearst to fire her for her speech.

I'm waiting...

However, there ARE people who say Christians should be jailed for "hate speech" when speaking out about homos.

Then I guess Bob has no problem with people keeping their jobs after engaging in hate-speech against blacks and latinos...

It's not an issue of free speech.

It's PAID speech. Hearst is PAYING her for her speech. If Hearst continues to PAY her for her speech we can only conclude that Hearst likes what she says.

Hearst? Let her spout her venom on her own dime, not yours.

Or publicly admit you think the Jews should be sent back to the lands of the death camps.

While you are at it, you do also want admit that you think blacks should be sent back to Africa or not? Or is that somehow different.

If you think it really is different, please explain to me just how it's different. I don't see any meaningful difference. Please do enlighten me.
