Respect is difficult when, He's our president and should be respected, is the substance of many letters I've read in The Gazette. Unlike those writers, I cannot respect a person who is a liar, an egomaniac and incompetent; who intentionally fills his cabinet with bigots and incompetents. Then there are the issues of taxes and business dealings. When a person speaks and has the quality of sounding like a whiny little twit, that's difficult to respect. <\/p>\n
There are those who can respect immoral persons, even presidents and I have little respect for those who can, like Max Lenington, who wrote scandalous emails on the taxpayer's dime or Sen. Daines, who, as a party lackey, suppressed a First Amendment free-speech right in a body where free speech should be the norm. Daines, without a thought, accepted arcane Rule 19 which, time and again, has not been enforced when senators previously had routinely violated that same rule. <\/p>\n
Free speech works both ways. It allows you to speak out on an issue, like Editor Darrell Ehrlick did and it allows a response if a person take umbrage to someone's free speech. Daines, on the other hand, did not respond to an issue but squelched a person's First Amendment free-speech right. <\/p>\n
