33. As much as I hate Regnery Press
UNTIL they are declared a racist press and kept out of mainstream publishing they have the RIGHT to buy the space, and BORDERS has the right to sell it to them... whether you agree with it or not.

And by the way, Krugman's book is full of hate speech when you speak to the loony right... yes, they use the EXACT same language you are using about Mrs. Coulter.

Yes, she is a hate momger, from my POV, but I will defend her right to write that crap and for Borders to accept the money till the day I die

Now if you would like to live in a country that bans certain speech... I have a list of candidates you could move to... and there are plenty still around the world that do that.

And the speech that makes you highly uncomfortable is particularly the speech that needs to be protected, ON EITHER SIDE of the political divide

If you cannot get this, then there is a problem and there are many fellow travellers of yours (on both sides of the political divide) that don't get this either.
