What difference does it make who wrote it. The truth is there or "Can't you stand the truth?" Maybe some Republicans are as closed minded as the Democrats.

Perouted will never know what it is like to give disaster aid as the President simply because he never will be. And give it a break already. To the world, The President of the United States IS the United States. If you dont like it, go protest at Capitol Hill with a big sign saying that you don't think we should be giving aid to Muslim countries or something. I am sure DU will love you for it. There is no "truth" in this letter. It is just one man's minority position paper when he is attempting to stay relevant. The problem is, he wasn't ever relevant in the first place.

Here's a couple of Teddy Roosevelt quotes that may be of interest to You:

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." (1918)

"Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event, it is unpatriotic not to tell the truth, whether about the president or anyone else." (?)
