We are out of the ditch, we're standing, we're walking, but we're not running. I want to grow the economy.

The right to express one's views, practice one's faith, peacefully assemble with others to pursue political or social change - these are all rights to which all human beings are entitled, whether they choose to exercise them in a city square or an Internet chat room.
