Agree or disagree with what Rep Murtha has said, I defend his right to say it. Isn't it what American service men and woman are fighting for?
Stupid questions such as the title of this thread don't deserve an answer.
You support the right of a US Congressman to deliberately and publicy undermine the morale of our Marines and to encourage the terrorists who kill them?
Yup. That means he should not fear arrest, prosecution, or imprisonment, or lawsuit for saying it. "Freedom of speech" means that the State lacks the authority to shut you down because of what you're saying. As has been said before on this forum, freedom of speech is great. It lets us know who the idiots are.
Freedom of speech has no bearing on the reaction of your fellow citizens to your speech. Indeed, they enjoy the same freedom you do. And if they choose to flame you mercilessly because of your speech ... you just gotta live with it.
Scumbag Murtha has had his say, those of us who think Congressthing Murtha is a piece of crap ... and a coward .. are free to say so as well.
