Are you usually pissed this early on a Saturday?

Do you actually use your brain before you type, or do you just type whatever you might think is the right-on view?

Loon.

The US government placed disgraceful restrictions on Rahman’s freedom of speech (barring him from communicating with anyone other than his lawyers and his wife); in that context, the only moral action available to his lawyers would be to allow his words to reach the outside world.

I hope I’d have the courage to follow Stewart’s example if I were in the same position; I also hope that should I ever be held as a political prisoner, I have access to a lawyer similarly willing to let my words out.

Didn’t the left used to support people held in prison for their political views, Eric?
