Robert Reich: I Will Fight for Ann Coulter’s Right To Say What She Wants

‘We cannot toy around with the First Amendment — it is absolutely critical’

RUSH EXCERPT:
REICH: "Jonathan, as you said, I don’t ever remember agreeing with Ann Coulter on anything. Maybe there is something Ann and I have agreed on, but I do believe in the First amendment, and I will fight for her right to say what she wants to say. The First amendment is, and freedom of speech, is the cornerstone of our democracy. And, whether it’s college campuses or somebody burning a flag or it’s the — newspapers having a right to say whatever they want, we cannot toy around with the First amendment. It is absolutely critical."
