I don't know about the rest of you, but it seems clear to me that Whoopi's comments are fully protected.

I found the reference book that she and the Left are using:

Article [I.]

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of liberal speech, or of those elements of the press or persons, who are approved of by progressive organizations; The right to free speech shall be free from negative financial or other monetary implications including, but not limited to boycotts for any person meeting the specific requirements of the progressive ideology as espoused by the ACLU, NOW, NAACP and DNC; free speech can be selectively enforced should any member of a dissenting party, such as the RNC, wish to exercise these rights in a manner deemed to be either inflammatory to those groups previously mentioned, or as used to benefit the Conservative movement; for the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

I did contact Slim-Fast the other day as soon as I heard they had the good sense to lose her as dead weight and promised them eternal allegiance to their diet beverages.

Good luck getting this published, and let us know how it works out.

If they ever take it to court, we'll have to see if the courts deem this the only valid interpretation of the First Amendment, which as we all know is a living document (in other words, they wish it were dead). Maybe they can find support for such in international law, as well. Just depends on who they ask.
