Blogline of the Day: on Free Speech

Glen Reynolds of Instapundit (emphasis mine):

DOES THE U.S. “OVERVALUE” FREE SPEECH? No, I think we undervalue kicking the ass of people who oppose it.

Indeed – the response of our President, our Secretary of State, and the others in the Obama Administration (and the Democrat Operatives with bylines in the MSM) have been on the simpering side with respect to the anti-Mohammed video.  What most Americans wanted to hear was a full throated, pedal to the metal, and no holds barred defense of one of our Pillars of American Exceptionalism – that of Free Speech and those that exercise it.  Instead, they’ve done everything possible to deny that it is important (and once again, as they all do in this “don’t blame me” Administration) and have thrown that example of free speech under the Obama bus.
