I am reminded of someone who had the proper response to such submissive mewling: John Adams, who stated, "We're in a war, dammit! We're going to have to offend somebody

Love that "quote" but I'm not sure whether Adams actually said that, or if it is just a great line from Peter Stone's script for "1776".

Either way it is a great line.
