Apparently you can run, and you can hide.

E.J. Dionne does an excellent job of summing up the White House's behavior towards dissenting views. This isn't exactly a new trend, this is a continuation from last year's campaign. What's different is that instead of campaign stop paid for by private funds, this was a public event, so this is the government stifling free speech. Plus we have a GOP volunteer playing Secret Service agent, which I'm guessing is a federal offense.

When did denying citizen's their Constitutional rights become a value? For that matter when did falsely identifying yourself as a member of the Secret Service become ok?
