\; V( n: ~8 ~7 N三年前，《聯合早報》評論員葉鵬飛便曾這樣批評精英主義思維：「現代國家，不可能由馴服被動的國民組成，積極主動的公民，才是國家真正的主人。這種對國家社會的主人意識（ownership），是進步和創意泉源。」這大概可作為老子「太上，下知有之……百姓皆謂我自然」善治哲學其中一個註腳。可惜在言論自由空間日益收窄的香港，這些道理卻逐漸變得遙不可及。$ t+ W8 x) B* v0 A. h1 ]* c3 Q- \

Well, 唔好咁開心住，Murrow在一片白色恐怖之中敢挺身對抗麥卡錫惡行令佢成為備受新聞界景仰嘅人物，而且佢離開CBS之後，被邀請做美國新聞處處長。港共政府會不會邀請李慧玲做新聞處處長或者新聞統籌專員？公仔箱論壇- r0 w' d; ^9 m9 U9 W; @

No one familiar with the history of this country can deny that congressional committees are useful. It is necessary to investigate before legislating, but the line between investigating and persecuting is a very fine one and the junior Senator from Wisconsin has stepped over it repeatedly. His primary achievement has been in confusing the public mind, as between internal and the external threats of Communism. We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men -- not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular.* B5 J+ p: L% I

This is no time for men who oppose Senator McCarthy's methods to keep silent, or for those who approve. We can deny our heritage and our history, but we cannot escape responsibility for the result.There is no way for a citizen of a republic to abdicate his responsibilities.As a nation we have come into our full inheritance at a tender age. We proclaim ourselves, as indeed we are, the defenders of freedom, wherever it continues to exist in the world, but we cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home. : W( z) ^' g* X/ [7 u) K) [1 ~% p) u; ztvb now,tvbnow,bttvb + z; ~) ~6 O/ c; b9 C- V" m& n( @The actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin have caused alarm and dismay amongst our allies abroad, and given considerable comfort to our enemies.
