I have a first amendment right to say what I believe. I have a responsibility to not say things that are libelous, slanderous, or dangerous. You have the corollary to my right, which is to choose to be offended at what I say.
Suppose for the moment that I sold concert tickets, CDs, or a subscription to my corner of the RallyCentral.us empire. For some reason, a large percentage of the readers take offense at my latest posting and cancel their subscriptions. Do I have the right to complain about how people are now disgusted by me and that my opinions are hateful? Of course I do. Do I have the right to cry like a baby? Of course I do. However, I must remember that I’m crying like a baby.
“Waah, people are offended by what I write. Now they don’t want to spend money on my product. Waah. People are offended my what I said. Now they’re walking out of my concerts. Waah.”
Sounds like a three-year-old. If it were a three-year-old, it would be understandable. What if it’s an adult? Over the past forty years or so, the liberals have decided that they don’t have to grow up. They can remain acting like a three-year old when they’re 58. What is that Bart Simpson says? “I didn’t do it. I wasn’t there. Nobody saw me do it.” Worked for OJ, might work for Scott Peterson, but it doesn’t work for the Dixie Chicks and Linda Rondstat.
Liberals need to wake up. Until they do, they will continue to scream about how their opponents are hateful, evil and wrong, but they have no alternatives. They sound like grade school kids. The President has brought the war on terror to the terrorists. He has seen tremendous success with our troops. “I know you are, but what am I? The President’s illegal election resulted in the deaths of Iraqis. He needs to be removed. We have no substance, so we’re going to attack the opposition.”
I take offense at that, so I take offense at the people who live like that. They have a right to be grown up and take my offense like an adult. If you don’t like it, take a long walk off a short pier.
