Yes! Dissent must be stifled. I'll only mutter my dissent in my bathroom after checking for bugs. The Party must not be hurt. Another thing, let's get that nogoodnik Rush Limbaugh to shut up too.
It is one thing to disagree with the President's policies. That is not what I am talking about.
There are plenty of posters here who disagree with President Bush on one or more issues and are able to voice those objections with reason.
Then there are the posters who call him a socialist, threaten to go third party or vote for Kerry, and attack all who disagree with them. That is the type of large-scale vituperative disagreement I am talking about.
And Tancredo shouldn't be running to the press and airing disagreements in public. It does no good except to get Tancredo's name in the press.
