When the Shoe is on the Other Foot

Liberals don't like it when they have to wear a shoe they've forced on others. There is a case before the Supreme Court involving an unflattering film about Hillary Clinton. The liberals are quite perturbed at the descriptions of Hillary in Hillary: The Movie -- cunning, ruthless, deceitful, Machiavellian. Hey, I may go see this one!

The liberal argument is that this is a campaign ad, and as such, is subject to regulation. Conservatives see it as a free speech issue. What I want to know is, where were all these liberals when Michael Moore put out Fahrenheit 9/11 and Oliver Stone put out W? Are they just now becoming concerned about the Bill of Rights? Or are they just selective in who they want protected by the Bill of Rights?
