Palin said she would leave it to the lawyers to decide whether it’s a “free speech rule of law or …

“Conservatives have always had trouble grasping the difference between public censorship and private enterprise. With a few exceptions, like whistleblower laws and National Labor Relations Board protections against being fired for off-site discussions about work conditions (exceptions that, in almost every case, conservatives bitterly opposed), there is no legal or constitutional right to free speech on private property.

Via press release: PETA wants A&E to do more than suspend one of the characters on Duck Dynasty for damning gays. We call on the channel to challenge the entire crew of duck slayers to ignore Sarah Palin’s self-serving slap on the back for spewing hate speech and deny that they are as anti-gay as they are anti-animal. All people …

Sarah Palin has gotten her scalp. Martin Bashir today announced his resignation from MSNBC.

Palin was on Fox News Sunday this morning where she said that she accepts the apology of MSNBC host Martin Bashir.

“This is significant as further proof that our government is so broken. When politicians can’t get anything to work, they change rules and hope we’ll just get distracted. The hugely divisive, dysfunctional “Nuclear Option” sets a terrible precedent. Mark Levin appropriately calls it ‘the latest act of leftist tyranny.’ It’s also leftist hypocrisy. Back under Republican control of the Senate, …

Palin is really milking this one.

From her Facebook page: “Oh dear Piers, thank you so much for all your invitations to appear on your shambolic show, including the adoring message you sent. But is it still any wonder why I’ve politely responded that I’m too busy doing, um, er… pretty much anything to accept the invite? (At least I didn’t tell you to ‘get stuffed’.) …
