A Sept. 29 NewsBusters post by Warner Todd Huston bashed the Obama campaign for violating “the right of free political speech” by banning signs at a rally, further bashing “weak-spined school officials” at the Virginia college where the rally was held because they “bent over and meekly accepted the rules derived from the fascistic penchant of the Obama campaign with its anti-first amendment proclivities.”
Funny, we don’t recall Huston exhibiting similar outrage when, for instance, a woman was arrested outside a John McCain “town hall meeting” purportedly open to the public for carrying a sign. Or when the Bush administration engaged in a policy of expelling possible critics from Bush’s public appearances.
Tell you what, Warner: Try getting a little mad about that, and then you might have a right to indulge your Obama Derangement Syndrome.
