Repealing free speech - Political correctness races amok on campus

Article here. Excerpt:

'The Justice Department put its contempt for the First Amendment on full display with its snooping on journalists at The Associated Press. It's a display of contempt for freedom of the press equaled only by the administration's disdain for freedom of speech, another of the essential First Amendment protections. The military has lately demonstrated a similar contempt for freedom of religious expression.

The Justice Department is making common cause with the Department of Education to renew the push for "speech codes" on campus. The sordid scheme was revealed in a letter of May 9 to President Royce Engstrom at the University of Montana, where the federal government proposes to limit free expression as a "blueprint for colleges and universities throughout the country."

The Constitution recognizes freedom of speech and of the press as necessary to sustain a free society. Americans should speak up against the administration's attack on the First Amendment — while they still can.'
