Progressives should not be afraid when Conservatives speak

Very interesting excerpt from Fareed Zakaria's GPS show yesterday where he discusses how college campuses like UC Berkely have succumbed to student body pressure from its more liberal segments and postponing speeches from conservative figures like Ann Coulter.

This is a poor attitude from leftist groups. This is the United States of America and one of the golden nuggets of our University System is the free exchange of ideas in the political arena. Liberal Student Groups should embrace these opportunities, not thumb their noses at them. If anything, it will give audiences a chance to see how outlandish and out of the mainstream these extreme right views are. Progressives should not be afraid when Conservatives speak because, on most (not all) issues, progressives are on the right side of history.
