Supporters argue her right to freedom of travel and speech and accuse the Bush administration of making an example of her. “It’s in regimes like Saddam Hussein’s where that freedom is not allowed,” Fippinger said. The U.S. Treasury Department says freedom of speech is a right but breaking the law of the United States is not a privilege.
