Susan G. Cole: Free Speech Denier

If every village has an idiot then NOW Magazine's in-house version surely must be Susan G. Cole. In this despicable attack against Ezra Levant and against free speech in Canada, she truly embarrasses herself.

After attacking Rex Murphy, Rick Mercer, Anna Maria Tremonti, and Mark Steyn, she then goes on to say this:

Levant spouts all the near-religious-in-tone rhetoric about how freedom of speech is his inalienable right. Ridiculous. Freedom of speech as an absolute is an American fantasy.

Make absolutely no mistake, it is the apathy of most Canadians that have let the Susan Cole's of our country badly damage it and direct it towards an Orwellian nightmare where Thought Police, controlled by the likes of her decide what is permissible and what is not. We're nowhere near there yet but that is precisely the kind of place where we're devolving into unless enough Canadians wake up and say, "NO MORE!"

I am heartened to see that many people are taking the time to talk back to her, with intelligent, cogent arguments.

Incidentally, the photoshopped image you see of Ezra Levant is the one on the NOW magazine site. Their right to free speech lets them publish such an image but one can not help from comparing it with these.
