Couldn't agree more with SG's larger point. I do think there's a hard balance we fight between what we support, and what we allow. I absolutely believe we should allow this guy to do what he wants in this regard. I am not sure I support him, and clearly many others do not (well within their rights). Regardless, this is not yelling FIRE! in a crowded theater.

IMO Obama's play here is "look he's a nimrod, but you're allowed to be a nimrod in a free country. It's how we guarantee that all views are heard, even unpopular ones".

I continue to be both astonished and saddened by the amount of war and violence that are caused by the combination of sky fairies, and people being pissed off because someone called them a name.
