Read this: Stupid History Teacher
This teacher is a complete idiot. She said that you cannot "slander" the president or you will be arrested. So, how is it that talk show hosts and news anchors of syndicated networks avoid that. 8 years of bashing Bush lead to no arrests. And even if someone was arrested, they would be read their rights, unless charged with terrorism. Why? Because that makes them enemy combatants outside a combat zone, and therefore not under the protection of any nation or treaty.
We, as citizens, have the right to criticize the president. We should refrain from disrespecting him and the office, but disrespect is not illegal. What is illegal is threatening the president's life. Saying Obama is the second worst president in US history and a socialist who is the cause of our current economic woes is not arrest worthy. It's my opinion of he man Barack Obama, who happens to be the current president.
So here's my question: when did criticism become synonymous with disrespect?
