Liberty is a political firewall that limits the damage government can do to the individual.

compare and contrast, yet again

Ann Coulter via Instapundit didn't go far enough...

Herman Cain, African-American:
  • facts so far: a couple of vague accusations of sexual misconduct have been made, with little evidence.
  • media reaction: histrionic wall-to-wall coverage.
Bill Clinton, Caucasian:
  • facts so far: many specific accusations of sexual misconduct have been made.
  • media reaction: repeated denials and claims of Republican witchhunt.
Clarence Thomas, African-American:
  • facts so far: accusations of sexual misconduct were made, which proved false.
  • media reaction: histrionic wall-to-wall coverage.
John Edwards, Caucasian:
  • facts so far: had extramarital affair while his wife was fighting cancer.
  • media reaction: repeated denials and claims of Republican witchhunt.
The obvious conclusion: the media is racist.

If they object, point out how the label is much more correct in this context than when they slander the tea party with it.
