paying for free speech

According to serial liar and Colorado governor Bill Owens, who, during an interview with Paula Zahn clearly demonstrated that he is on an obvious crusade to eliminate the outspoken Ward Churchill from his tenured college position, one of the biggest arguments against retaining Churchill on the educational staff is that "no professor has the right" to advocate "armed conflict." By that logic, that means that any and all professors in Colorado who supported the invasion of Iraq should also be under threat of firing. Ahhh, Colorado, where all speech is free, but some speech is freer than other speech.

Of course, Paula Zahn couldn't part the Zoloft haze to notice that little sequitur.
