* Joining a union is a constitutional right. The First Amendment protects freedom of speech, peaceable assembly and petition for address of grievances. We don't think we're better than the average American, but we refuse to be treated worse by the rich ones. * In regard to the mayor of Belle: Give her a chance, maybe she can get rid of some of the slum areas and clean them up.
LUFKIN, Texas -- The First Amendment consists of a single 45- word sentence that protects a quartet of rights: freedom of religion; freedom of speech; freedom of the press; and freedom of assembly and petition. It is the spring from which all our liberties flow. Some argue that the Second Amendment, which protects the right to bear arms, is more important.

CHICAGO (AP) - In a contest between Americans' knowledge of "The Simpsons" and what they know about the First Amendment - Bart and Homer win hands down.

The First Amendment safeguards Americans' rights to freedom of press, assembly, speech, petition and religion. But government regularly tests the boundaries of what it can restrict, as in the federal investigation into who in the Bush administration in 2003 revealed to members of the media that Valerie Plame was a CIA agent. Plame is the wife of Joseph Wilson, a grandstanding former ambassador who grabbed for the limelight by casting doubt on President Bush's controversial assertion that the Iraqis had been trying to acquire nuclear materials in Africa. When his wife's work at the CIA was revealed in a Robert Novak column -- by way of explaining why Wilson had been tapped by the agency for a mission to investigate the story -- Wilson charged that the administration blew his wife's cover...
