where is it written that liberals define our rights?

I just finished reading a fascinating article about MSNBC "Countdown" host Keith Olberman. The article talked about how Olberman has begun to generate a lot of buzz among the far-left crowd because of his blistering on-air attacks against the Bush administration and FOX News. I don't watch Olberman because I don't find him to be particularly bright (my opinion) but he has the right to say what he wants on his show.
The part of the article that I did find offensive was the following:

It (a blistering response to comments made by Donald Rumsfeld at an American Legion speech) was the first of now five extraordinarily harsh anti-Bush commentaries that have made Olberman the latest media point-person in the nation's political divide.
"As a critic of the administration, I will be damned if you can get away with calling me the equivalent of a Nazi appeaser," Olberman told the Associated Press. "No one has the right to say that about any free-speaking American in this country."

No one has the right??? What part of the Constitution is that written in? Which amendment says that? I am so tired of liberals screaming about freedom of speech, and then doing everything in their power to destroy the ability of conservatives to exercise that right. The truth is that liberals don't really believe in free speech. Liberals believe that their cockamamie ideas are intellectually superior to any other ideas, therefore, liberal expression must be promoted and conservative expression must be silenced. Failed sportscaster Keith Olberman's lame-brained comments are Exhibit A for that very real truth.
