When was I defending liberals? Don't assume things man!
But need I remind you of "free speach zones"? Come on!! A sitting president, during election time, setting up areas far away from him, and those are the only places where our constitutional rights apply, are you joking?!
Free speech is not invitation to disrupt public events, come on man haven't you seen what these people do when Coulter speaks at a college campus, what do you think they would do if they had access like that to the president. You do you really think they would be civil?
And as for the in our life times comment I suggest you look into the fascist fairness doctrine which was in direct violation of the first amendment and which wasn't repealed until 1988 and finally totally abolished in 2000 and it wasn't until then that the right in this country finally regained its voice.
