As a Democrat and a liberal, I want the Gore campaign to do whatever is necessary to ensure a complete and accurate count of the votes.

As a liberal, I respect the rights of others to hold opposing views.

As a liberal, I respect the right to peacefully picket as an important aspect of our right to free speech.

As a liberal, I am disgusted with the radicals on the left who seem convinced that the moral superiority of their positions gives them the right to surpress the freedom of speech of those they oppose.

As a Jew, I would be upset at the picketing of Lieberman's home only if it were done BECAUSE it was the sabbath. The article doesn't mention if the demonstrators were there any other days. My guess is that they have been there many times in the past. Picketing a prominennt politicial (who happens to be Jewish) on Saturday among other days is no different than picketing the White House (whose occupant happens to be Christian) on Sunday. There is NO religious implication in my mind - merely a group of Americans exercising their rights.
