        The Liberals in and out of Government are no longer even trying to disguise their attempts to silence opposition to their views. Not since the Sedition Act of June 1798 (and its companion statute allowing deportation of problem aliens) has one political party and ideology tried harder to silence dissent and free speech.

        Political correctness is perhaps the most subtle and insidious attempt to silence any open debate or criticism of liberal viewpoints. While it is not a federal crime, yet, it certainly carries penalties to speak ill of any policy or group the liberals are promoting.

       “NAZI” (Which was a Socialist movement - the National Socialist German Workers Party), “Racist”, “Bigot”, are just some of the tags thrown at people in an attempt to silence and discredit out-of-hand, opposing opinions.

        As an example, by expressing your opinion that the liberal Hollywood crowd’s views were wrong, weird, or anti-American, you open yourself to being called a

NAZI.  To them, freedom of speech is a one-way street -- they can present the opinion that you are wrong, but you cannot express the opinion that their opinions are wrong without facing an irrational hysterical onslaught that you are trying to silence free speech. \

        The real purpose of the Liberal's is not freedom of speech, but  "prevention of speech" by those not agreeing with them. A perfect example has been their attempts to prevent compaign commericials in opposition to Kerry from even being aired by aatttempting  to indimidate the broadcast outlets.

        They use the tactics they profess to hate as a weapon to silence those that disagree with them. Perhaps the most aggressive and devastating activities take place on college campuses where young minds can be intimidated into silence or threatened with a poor grade by not buying into the agenda of liberal professors. This effort to silence opposition is evidence of a corrupt, dishonest, weakened, and dying movement. The interesting anomaly is that a majority of Americans oppose their views.

Someone has messed with the time continuum and thrown the world into an alternative universe. I present the following items as proof.

        Item 1.  A Washington State school district canceled its annual Halloween celebration because it’s disrespectful to real witches. “Witches with pointy noses and things like that are not respective symbols of the Wiccan religion and so we want to be respectful of that,” said Puyallup School District spokeswoman Karen Hansen.

         On the district’s list of guidelines related to holidays and celebrations is an item that reads: “Use of derogatory stereotypes is prohibited, such as the traditional image of a witch, which is offensive to members of the Wiccan religion.”  “I do lots of things that are not revolving around wearing a black outfit and stirring a cauldron,” said Wiccan priestess Cheryl Sulyma-Masson.

         Parents shouldn’t be surprised that witches and their “religion” are being protected in public schools since the advocating of running naked in the woods, hugging trees and worshipping Mother Earth (normal Wiccan practices) are all now part of the regular classroom discussions in many school districts.

         Item 2. The City of Oakland, California has stopped setting up roadblocks to check whether drivers are under the influence because of a rash of complaints from the Latino community. It seems the DUI checkpoints are trapping more than drunks. Apparently they have ensnared dozens of illegal aliens who are not licensed to drive “yet otherwise obey the law.”

         “These checkpoints make people’s lives miserable, not make them safer,” said Jesus Rodriguez of Oakland Community Organizations, which has filed most of the complaints. “I’ve watched while police have towed away cars (full) of groceries, leaving children crying on the sidewalk.”

        Now, Oakland is creating new checkpoint guidelines which may call for police to notify Latino community organizations of the time and location of coming checkpoints. “It’s simple common sense,” said City Councilman Ignacio De La Fuente.

. “You don’t want to stop people from going to or from work. If there are kids in the car, give someone an opportunity to call someone to pick up their kids rather than create chaos.”

         So let’s get this straight. Legal Americans, who have tried for years
