[quote]Chaltab if you want to say that the conservatives aren't trying to control what people think, that is one thing. But saying that the liberals are trying control what people think, is B.S. They are ones always defending the 1st amendment. The liberals merely wants to keep the government from controlling what people think. And there is a big difference between calling some one an idiot or a bigot and controling what some one thinks. One could argue that the conservatives call anyone who doesn't think their way an evil godless sinner. [/quote]

Hey, I'm all for the first Amendment, but I'm also for it being used responsibly. Liberals can say whatever they want, but the minute they fail a student for not buying into politically correct B.S. or start restricting the rights of people to pray or wave a flag whereever they want to, then THEY are the one's in violation of the first ammendment.

Also: Have I, Starkiller, or JediSage called anyone an evil godless sinner? The people who peddle self-righteous bigotry in the guise of faith or conservatism are not really conservative at all, but extremist. I think that conservatives are tired of being treated like Fred Phelps' homeboys.
