Your son did what a good soldier does -- what he's told. Thank him from me.

But if you take your argument to its conclusion, you would have to agree with everything the government does to the military. Aren't we a democracy (or better, Republic), where at some point we're supposed to have a public conversation about what we're going to do with our military?

Can we debate ideas about it without already being treasonous? And who decides which ideas are okay and which ones are "not okay"? Is it the president?

Remember when Clinton got us involved in Kosovo? Was I unpatriotic for opposing that?

Good point. I'd like to hear the response of those who fling out slurs like "cowards, Murtha, Commies" on this thread.
