Censure Rall
Freedom of speech means free of governmental censoring -- not free of consequences. Consequences are a-brewing for the above-mentioned Ted Rall:Andrew Sullivan Today’s disgusting diatribe against Pat Tillman is so vile, so utterly devoid of any motive or argument but personal malice and hatred, some form of protest is surely merited. Email the vice-president for print syndication, Lee Salem, and tell him what you think of Rall’s cartoon. Please, please, be civil. His email is lsalem@amuniversal.com. He needs to hear from you.
Cold Fury The time for merely railing in places like this against Rall’s childishly treasonous outbursts is past. It’s now time to do something more concrete and tangible about him. Let him scream “stifling of dissent” all the way to the pauper’s grave he so richly merits; let him peddle his filth from somewhere other than the protective bosom of the country he so obviously despises. Let him lie down with the terrorist dogs his nihilistic ivory-tower Leftism breeds, weans, and coddles and see if he’s more comfortable in their embrace than our own. Let him reap what he’s sown. There is no reason in the world that any nation, any society, any civilization, should have to tolerate such trifling, intellectually dishonest, and despicable attacks. The fact that he lacks the self-discipline to muzzle his own baser impulses is no reason to continue letting him shit on a rug he didn’t pay for in the first place.
Beautifully written, that.
In just one, tiny sentence, Ted Rall changes from just another bitter anti-America screech owl into a hatemongerer. ...That's disdainful. It's arrogant, it's obnoxious, it's vile and it's contemptible. No newspaper or syndicate in their right mind should be letting this hateful attempt at humor grace their pages.
Dear Mr Salem, I do not protest your publishing of un-funny cartoons, for after all, one man's hilarity is another man's "Lulu." I find I must protest when un-funny slops across the line into hateful, as have Ted Rall's pieces. I hope that you are making the choice to continue your association with him with the awareness that many people will view your organization as they view Mr Rall; as supporting hatred, racism and petty meanness. Thank you for your time, Claire Barry There's mine -- you?
LuLu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
