RE: CAIR's Assault on Paul Harvey

Thank you for highlighting the plight of Mr. Harvey. I would take issue only with the following comment from the article, "CAIR's Assault on Paul Harvey": "Comment: CAIR here rejects the American principle of free speech and the belief that differences in opinion should be dealt with through reasoned discourse; it wants to close down debate. I can think of no U.S. organizations except the militant Islamic ones that deploy comparable tactics." Remember Dr. Laura, and how gay activists went after her, and her advertisers? I would say they (gay activists) certainly deploy comparable tactics!

Thanks again for another well-written article!
