Joe Lieberman is pushing through a “panic button” to silence the internet chatter in the event of a national emergency.

Yes, this is where "left" and "right" intersect. I am by no means an across-the-board libertarian, but this . . .

It all goes to show that the whole point of "free speech" to a liberal is the right to swear and use the "f-word." It begins and ends there. Criticism of the government is "hate speech."

Have liberals ever thought about what happens if they get kicked out and Republicans inherit all this power?

I’ve pointed out before that “with all this power” doesn’t matter to despotic rulers. Hillary was unelected and illegally accessed 900 FBI files.

They will do what they will do no matter of consequence (if any).

Lieberman’s generally a hawk on foreign policy but let’s not forget that he’s pretty solidly liberal in most other areas.

Unless the Government is headed by a Republican, even a fairly moderate one. Then it's one's fraternal duty.
