Americans spend a lot of time fighting for, talking, debating and writing about our rights. No matter from which side of the political aisle we hale, we love our rights and we love to talk about them. It’s a shame we are not as enthusiastic about the responsibilities that accompany those rights.

"What kind of national leader takes aim at his own nation in support of his nation’s enemies? Technically speaking, only a traitor!"

Longish article, but pretty interesting.

We have the right… but we also have a responsibility. Those who accept no responsibility with their right can not be trusted with that right. In war time, no one is more dangerous than an irresponsible individual willing to aid and abet our enemies for sake of political gain.

So true. To become more than a child, one must accept responsibility. Democrats - the party of irresponsible children.

Clearly Governor Dean, like any other American, has every right to such an opinion. However, as the leader of the second most powerful political party in America, representing nearly half of American voters

I LOVE this subtle slap in the face...

Hail.

Points for not dangling the preposition, but he lost me when he didn't check his homophones ... if you're going to mangle the language, try not to do it in the first paragraph!

We should start a campaign of "Dean is a traitor" to counter the "Bush is a lier" nonsense.
