My first amendment rights are being suppressed!!
Per Maureen Dowd of the New York Times.
Add Maureen Dowd, the Pulitzer-winning columnist for the NY Times, to the list of media types who have fallen out bitterly with John McCain. The McCain campaign has barred her from flying in the McCain and Palin press planes …
[…]
"I had had a great relationship with John McCain for 16 years, through columns he liked and didn't like. So at first I thought it was a mistake and doublechecked with the press office. They said I was banned from both planes for 'the foreseeable future.' Then [McCain spokeswoman] Nicole Wallace was gloating about it to reporters on the Palin plane,"
Dowd wrote in an email.
"It was disappointing because I didn't think John McCain would ever be as dismissive of the First Amendment as Dick Cheney." (source, Thanks to NewsBusters)
So, according to the Dowd's non-narcissistic, incredibly deep, emotionally detached and non-bitchy take on first amendment rights, my not being invited on any campaign planes is a clear sign of 1st amendment rights suppression.
Thanks for clearing that up for everyone sweetie.
