Most of what Chris Matthews says is mindless trash, but today he pulled out a great analogy immediately after Ted Kennedy's stirring endorsement of Obama. He compared Hillary Clinton to the character Salieri in the movie Amadeus. Until Mozart came along he was the leading composer in Vienna, but he was just a workman, a technician. Mozart had inspiration, feeling, the spirit. Salieri, even though he lived a long life and Mozart died young, is a footnote to Mozart's lasting greatness. Matthews nailed it.  Maybe this makes up for his calling the voters of New Hampshire racists because he and every other pundit read the polling data wrong.

A German court today sentenced infamous Holocaust denier Ernst Zundel to five years in prison for holding a particularly unpopular opinion.  The irony of jailing people for their beliefs in the name of fighting the neo-Nazi movement seems to be lost on most of the western world, including Canada, which jailed Zundel for two years in a maximum security facility before deporting him to Germany.  Many organizations, such as the Simon Wiesenthal Center, applaud the decision, but sadly lacking is a sense of outrage over the blow that this decision strikes against free speech.  Whatever happened to "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"?
