What is the author's opinion on the right to free speech? What advice is given to those who are offended by someone's speech?
I have been mightily upset by the dogma spewed from pulpits of all denominations. Does that drive me to the level of indignation  that I see in so many columns? Of course not! I respect the right to free speech, period. That right cannot be denied to the GG, either. 
Yes, she has trampled on some politically correctness via religious shibboleths and that will cost her. But speaking the truth never comes without a price. 
My advice to those so aggreived is the same that I would heed myself in a similar situation: Listen to what is being said in its entirety and context, then next suck it up, buttercup.
