John McCain Just Doesn’t Get the Free Speech Thing

Republican anger continues to mount over MoveOn's disgraceful ad in Monday's New York Times that referred to "General Betray Us."

Thursday night, Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona) voiced one of the sharpes rebukes of the far-left organization since the ad was first published.

Speaking in front of a group in Hudson, New Hampshire, while holding a blown-up copy of the ad, McCain said:
It's disgraceful, it's got to be retracted and condemned by the Democrats, and MoveOn.org ought to be thrown out of this country."

Right on the first three items and wrong, dead wrong, on the last.

Despite the fact that I stand for everything that Move On doesn’t; Move On has a right to express their (collective) opinion. And when they step over the line I’ve got a right, ever right, to blast Move On and any of their bought and paid for lackeys that cover for them.
