[quote name="Fussbett"]CNN's <A href="http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0303/21/lkl.00.html" target="yeehaw">Larry King Live</a>: Also crap. CALLER: This is for Senator Durbin. ...sitting here watching TV and knowing about our homeland security and seeing all these people protesting, what do you think about all of the police that had to come from and take care of these protesters, and about the security and about the money that we have? I'll sit and listen to you. Thank you. DURBIN: Well, I think we ought to keep this in perspective. One of the things we treasure in this country is the right to debate and dissent. And there are people in America who really disagree with our foreign policy and have expressed it in a peaceful manner, and they are entitled to do that. I think that is part of their right as a citizen.

How do you feel, do you think it was bad for them or do you think the right continues throughout the battle? HUTCHISON: <b>Of course, that is what makes America different from every other country in the world. People have a right to protest, and a peaceful protest is certainly in line with freedom of speech.</b> FUSSBETT TO TV: :([/quote]
