    Dictator Palin

    Wow! So much for defending the Constitution. And we thought George Bush was bad. If Palin ever became President, obviously free speech would quashed before she even sat down in the Oval Office. We'd have a totalitarian regime faster than Palin could wink.

    Some one needs to get her on some meds quick! The paranoia has set in and there are little green liberal men everywhere out to get her!

    It just makes me wonder how you define "abuse" of free speech. That seems awfully vague. I might be wrong but once you willfully put yourself into the limelight and become a public figure, you can't legally claim defamation of character anymore.

    Good God, considering the incredibly crap that is said by bloggers and Fox News about Obama and Michelle, and Palin calls what is said about her "abuse". Talk about hypocrisy.
