The Flypaper Theory: May we call them fascists NOW?

The Flypaper Theory: May we call them fascists NOW?: "May we call them fascists NOW?

I just spoke with a barrista at Empire Coffee (the old Map Room at the corner of Madison & Main). On Thursday Empire was contacted by someone who claimed to be a 'federal agent' and told that they were not allowed to display any signs critical of President Bush or his plans to dismantle Social Security. Empire posted a sign saying--and this is a paraphrase--- 'We have been informed that we aren't allowed to display signs critical of Bush. We would like to remind the authorities that the First Amendment also applies in Memphis.'"

This would never happen in nashville!

Right on. It's great to see this coming from Tennessee, if you know what I mean...
