Hmm, perhaps I chose the phrase wrongly, in a certin way, but I think it
still applies to a degree, you can't have freedon of expression without free
will. I'm staying out of discussions of meanings of certin loaded phrases.
I just meant Dail was using the principle of free will and free expression
to state its feelings over a controversial exhibit. I stand by their right
as strongly as I stand by the museums right to have the exhibits. Although,
if I had drawn comparisons between the museums right of freedom of
expression to exhibit and Dails right of freedom of expression to say it
does not support the exhibit I would have come acroos a little clearer. I
stand enlightened..:)
