Nice broad sweeping statement. I'm sure it must be true.

the people who defended the guy here are generally liberals (Ty and SS). I, for one, don't think he should have been fired, but neither should rush or Dusty Baker or Charles Barkley or Jimmy the Greek.....
I was just trying to show that there is hypocracy in defending the guy as being different than Rush's case.

Actually if you look back there were liberals (me included) that said that what Rush said was not really that bad. But I'm sure you are right that all liberals oppose free speech. I do not cry for Rush because his schpeil is being inflamatory and given enough time he would have said something else to hang himself. I bet ESPN even acknowledged that internally when they made the decision to axe him. He was never an appropriate spokesperson for the network.
