Bush, King Get Muzzles

The 16th annual "Muzzle" awards were given out by the Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression. Among the winners of the award, given to people deemed violators of Free Speech are President Bush's administration and Congressman Peter King (R-New York.)

King, a Nassau County Republican and the only member of his party still representing Long Island, won his "muzzle" because of his calls to try the New York Times as spies after they leaked information about a classified government program to monitor international financial transactions.

The Bush administration and the Pentagon both received "muzzles" for rather obvious reasons
