"Free Speech," Apparently, is

only for the PNAC mafia and their supporters. First Peter Arnett, now adjunct professor Dennis Holt of the University of Montana is being silenced.

It's a redux of what happened in the 1960s, with professors being fired for stating the obvious. By rights this guy should win any lawsuit; however, the fact he isn't a tenure-track professor is a bit problematic. If Holt had been a fully tenured professor, I doubt this would have happened. I also think the claims the students and parents made about his "crazy" behavior ("crazy" not being defined in this militia-style state) is more CYA than anything else.
