[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 922810, member: 22662"] I don't see "freedom" as an offesive word. I do look at it as a red flag though. I often wonder what it is that the speaker means by it. Is the word being used as being simply universally permissive? Or does the speaker envision the vast responsibility that comes with that freedom? And what of each and every listener to the speaker? What are they hearing or what is it that they think they are hearing? When Sean Hannity speaks of freedom, does he mean what Willie Nelson means? When Ed Schultz speaks of freedom, does Ron Paul stand up and cheer? It's a word that can mean everything and nothing all at the same time. [/QUOTE]
