Thank God there remains at least one big U.S. corporation that can tell the difference between free speech and indecent radical leftist moonbat chicanery.

A woman was booted off a Southwest Airlines flight for wearing a T-shirt that bore an expletive and images of President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

Southwest Airlines spokeswoman Marilee McInnis said several passengers complained about the shirt. She said Southwest rules allow the airline to deny boarding to any passenger whose clothing is “lewd, obscene or patently offensive.”

Lorrie Heasley of Woodland, Wash., said she plans to press a civil-rights complaint against the airline over Tuesday’s action at Reno-Tahoe International Airport, halfway through Heasley’s scheduled trip from Los Angeles to Portland, Ore.

“I have cousins in Iraq and other relatives going to war,” Heasley told the Reno Gazette-Journal. “Here we are trying to free another country and I have to get off an airplane … over a T-shirt. That’s not freedom.

You want freedom Ms. Heasley? Get in your car and drive 2 hours north. Canada awaits you with open arms.
