2. Vote
While they are all worthy of a vote I choose freedom of the press.

Look at the problem this has caused in this country today. The press has been taken over by the republicans. The radio along with network and cable TV. We do not get the real iformation of what is happening in our country.

The Downing Street Memo information was kept from most of the country.
The torture of some innocent prisoners is not been written as it should
Cheney's secret agreement with the oil companies in his so call enegry program.

That's just to name a few. If we did not have access to the internt we wouldn't be getting "the rest of the story". So that is why I think having a free press is the most important thing. IF WE HAD A FREE PRESS MOST OF THE OTHER THINGS WOULDN'T HAPPEN. Because the country would know what is going on and react. Look at the McCarthy Hearings. It took a member of a free press to smoke him out. and back when Woodward was a member of the free press, look at the information they found out and published about the Nixon Watergate incident.

Do you think that if we had a free press today that bush and his henchmen would not have been outed over and over and over.

4. Other
Free speech, free press, and the right to assemble would be the worst things to take away, along with the right to own property.

5. Voting to limit our freedom of speech...
I find that to be the worst because then we couldn't speak out about this criminal government and their legalization of torture...among other things.

6. Torture is an affront to human dignity.
Just like rape, or cannibalism.
