America's Freedom of Expression

Ray McGovern, 71 years old, an Army veteran, and former CIA analyst for 27 years, was present at Hillary Clinton's speech at George Washington University yesterday. Hillary spoke about the Middle East uprisings, and condemned governments that arrest protesters and don't allow free expression.

Mr McGovern, wearing a Veterans For Peace T-shirt, stood up, turned his back on Hillary, and did not say a word. He was dragged out of the meeting by police and a plainclothes person, he was bruised and bleeding, and thrown in jail.

Hillary didn't miss a beat. (pun intended)
