Tired of "politically correct?" Want an editorial cartoon that is quick to call out the bumblings of U.S. politics and cuts slack to no one? Pulitzer-Prize winner Ben Sargent is paying attention and making Washington have second thoughts about that little thing called the First Amendment.

Well done Ben! Very Well done!
However I think the message will be lost on the intended audience.

I wish the those 13 soldiers could come back and haunt all the Leftist lunatics whose oppressive, despotic “political correctness” helped get them killed…

I’m sorry you had to use this tragedy to vent your anti-Conservative bias Sargent. Should I have expected more from you?
kreole said, about 15 hours ago
Sargent, you are guilty of mixing 2 view points. Both are equally focused but you didn’t have the courage to take a stand. Great job on riding the fence on this one.

Sargent you must have forgotten it is the lefty’s that want to hush Rush and other conservative talk shows. The lefty’s only believe in freedom of speech if it speech they agree with. why do you hate free speech?

av8tor that’s exactly 180 degrees from the truth…par for the course with you people. We have NEVER tried to censor Limbaugh the Liar, and never will. We like having him screaming his hate and venom every day as an example of the right wing cesspool mentality; SICK!!!!!!

Ah yes, you lefty’s scream hate speech…. but can never document or prove exactly what was said or who said it..But it was ok when you lefty’s called Bush a liar and Nazi..wah wah wah..someone call a wambulance for these guys.
My guess is you are all sucking from the public trough on some public assistance program, wearing your jammies, sitting in your mothers basement complaining the government isn’t doing enough for you..why do you all hate America so much?

Yes, this is another cartoon that is so NUANCED and PRECISE and LOGICAL I would hate to have to remind Sargent that it’s the Libs who want to make certain THOUGHTS a CRIME.

Criminalizing speech and thought entered the legal and political mainstream when conspiring prior to the commission of a criminal act was defined as itself being an act. Since that time, criminalizing thought and speech has merely been a question of where the line is drawn. Clarence Darrow fought consistently against conspiracy laws. It is interesting now to go back and read some of Mr. Darrow’s arguments.

Speech requires an audience, thought does not - but your point is well made.

“My guess is you are all sucking from the public trough on some public assistance program, wearing your jammies, sitting in your mothers basement complaining the government isn’t doing enough for you..why do you all hate America so much?” Jeez dude. It’s that sort of talk that makes others ramp up THEIR rhetoric. I’m fighting the urge to scold you right now, because as a war veteran, college graduate, hard working electrician, and liberal I’m offended by your broadly inaccurate generalizations.
