At least the Fuhrer didn't have him placed in a concentration camp yet.

I am sorry, but I think you miss the real issue. This has little to due with freedom of speech or offending the "fuhrer." This man lost his job because he could not comport his behavior appropriately around the clients of his employer. If he had gone to the event on his own dime, that would be a completely different issue, but this is not the case.

Common sense dictates you go out of your way to please your clients, and (In my opinion) one should not be political around business contacts. In a business setting, the rules are quite different.

Whether the guy heckled Bush, Kerry, or anyone else, his actions were unprofessional and not appropriate as guests of a client.

This is really a non-story that has been picked up and exploited by the media.

So a guy working for a private firm got fired by his boss because his behavior offended one of their clients..wow thats important news there. Exactly how is Bush in involved in this? I try very hard to not let my debating get personal, but jokerswild, you have got to be one of the most ridiculous posters here.

Blah blah. Do those of us who rationally dislike Bush a favor and post something substantial. Bush didn't even do anything to the guy. He probably didn't even hear him.
