Suggest you hang out here for about a year and learn history from a lot of seasoned folks here on FR, most of whom are history buffs, and military vets.

Some of your comments are being perceived as a supporter of an anti-American former president Carter. Carter has caused tremendous damage to this country.

If you fail to do your homework, you will be perceived as a DU lurker.

Ergo, you may want to cut back on the throttle.

Do what you will... I will observe, and follow your mis-guided dialogue/arguments. IMOHO.

BTW, Were you of age to vote in 1972?

I'm not a supporter of Carter- he was horrible on the job. If people on this site want to call a former president of the United States a traitor, and I object that such a filthy term should not be used except in the most sure cases, it's hardly showing support.

Maybe in the hothouse flower world of FR where only long term membership gives one the right to speak, and then only in agreement with the party line ?

Im a bit of a history buff myself, and no Democrat.

Read the words of Abraham Lincoln at Cooper Union regarding his southern brother's attitude toward the "FRee" exchange of ideas:

"In all your contentions with one another, each of you deems an unconditional condemnation of "Black Republicanism" as the first thing to be attended to. Indeed, such condemnation of us seems to be an indispensable prerequisite - license, so to speak - among you to be admitted or permitted to speak at all. Now, can you, or not, be prevailed upon to pause and to consider whether this is quite just to us, or even to yourselves? Bring forward your charges and specifications, and then be patient long enough to hear us deny or justify them"

I like FR because I can find good debate here- try that on lefty site and the hate rolls in.

I was not of age in 1972, and its always good to have fans ;-)
