All over the world at this hour free speech is being attacked as perhaps never before in the history of modern civilization. Liberal politicians and extremist Muslims have forged an alliance of sorts that views speaking one's mind on matters such as religion and politics a dangerous endeavor that should be forbidden.
Several high profile cases provide the perfect examples.
Last year National Review columnist Mark Steyn was placed on trial in a human rights tribunal in Canada for merely suggesting that the Muslim attack on European culture is dangerous.
In the Netherlands, freedom-fighter Geert Wilders is presently under indictment for 'speaking against Islam.'
During the 2008 Presidential campaign, Barack Obama blacklisted and punished radio and television stations that ran ads by the McCain campaign that were critical of Obama's ideas.
This, along with the Democrats' intention to squelch conservative speech on the airwaves using a variety of means, including but not limited to 'the (UN)Fairness Doctrine, bodes an ill omen for freedom of speech.
We are even hearing rumblings among the Left that any conservative who vehemently opposes and/or speaks out against the Obama vision for socialism in this country is to be considered 'a traitor.'
The following article at National Review, written by two courageous patriots, Geert Wilders and Robert Spencer, lays out in stark detail the world-wide attack on free speech and what we can do about it.
2009 will be a watershed year for human liberty.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 1/15/08
Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:
Say Uncle has a news story that shows that gun control freaks don't respect the law. If they don't respect personal property (firearms and ammo), then why would they respect private property?
Atlas does an impromptu video interview with the great Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch. Looks like they had some fun with this one!
CNS News reports that the Democrat-controlled House voted to expand S-Chip, the socialized medicine program that 'covers poor children' supposedly--although many of those covered are not children at all.
Mike McCarville posts some news of national significance on algore and global warming...
Speaking of the weather, Weather Underground reports the wintry weather conditions have stretched all the way down into the Tampa Bay area of Florida.
Gun Rights Examiner presents Codrea's 'Kill the Bill, Volume Two'--a must-read!
Codrea's War on Guns comments on an asinine statement by a boneheaded numbskull.
A hearty congratulations goes to Kurt Hofmann at Armed and Safe as he becomes the new columnist at Gun Rights Examiner-St. Louis.
Nicki reports that Barack Obama has done some more backtracking, this time on Osama bin Laden.
Alphecca points to a stupid headline that suggests that in a crowd, you lose your rights.
Days of our Trailers is keeping track of the Mayors who have teamed up with 'The Bastard's' gang of mayoral gun-grabbers and who are under indictment for corruption.
Walls of the City says there is some real hope on the horizon regarding guns in Tennessee.
Western Rifle Shooters Association reports that in 2009, under Barack Obama's economic plan, the U.S. will owe more in debt that all of its citizens are worth. Now if THAT doesn't scare you, nothing will. But then, most citizens know nothing about these things and don't really seem to care.
Tam says that cats are a writer's best friend because they are independent and not needy. Could be. But personally, I am a dog man. I have nothing against cats, but dogs are, well, sent from God. Cats are 'of the devil.' lol
The Wandering Minstrel comments on secure travel--particularly in an RV.
Breda blogs on some more examples of Democrat paranoia about guns.
Sebastian posts a letter he sent to Senator Arlen Specter on the Holder confirmation hearing today in the U.S. Senate.
Bitter has been writing a series of articles over at Sebastian's place about SHOT. This one is an example. She has others. Just scroll down.
Robb Allen has the story of a man shot in the toilet by his own gun. Gotta be careful out there...err...in there, I mean.
Pax Parabellum posts the quote of the day from Jay Leno on the economy. It's a good one!
Sipsy Street Irregulars responds to criticism from an admirer who nonetheless says 'Mike Vanderboegh is Wrong.'
John Jacob H has the video of Eric Holder's 1999 testimony before the Senate on his beliefs about gun control. A MUST-see!
Blogstitution presents a most interesting case of an attempt to prove there is no bias in the mainstream media by using biased methodology.
JR says that Ruger has introduced a brand new lightweight compact revolver. Take a look!
Armed Citizen writes a good blurb on an American classic. Time to give this book a look if you haven't already.
MsUnderestimated is a blog that's new to The Liberty Sphere. Just click on the link and start reading and scrolling. Good stuff there!

CAIR THREATENS SUIT AGAINST YAF (Corrected Update)
NOTICE! This is the corrected version of the original story, which contained a factual error.
Incensed by the inclusion of 'Jihad Watch' director Robert Spencer on the list of speakers for the annual conference of the Young America's Foundation, CAIR has threatened to sue the organization unless YAF cancels Spencer's appearance.
Spencer is a noted expert on the global jihad and has often drawn fire from terrorist front-groups, such as CAIR, for his willingness to report the covert activities of Islamic terrorists.
CAIR often portrays itself as a 'mainstream, moderate' Muslim organization. However, they are known to channel funds to overseas terrorists, and they have recently been named by the U.S. Government as an unindicted co-conspirator in a money scheme to benefit terrorist organizations in various countries around the world.
Below you will find the link to the news story about CAIR's threat. Note carefully YAF's swift, decisive, and bold response to CAIR.
