You're right, other Presidents have had wars but they mostly had the support of the people until Vietnam and people like Kerry and Fonda .
I've never seen such a 'mean spirited' time before. Freedom of speech has lost its morals and sense of decency.
I believe strongly in First Amendment Rights, however, the left has pushed it over the line, into a seditious area. The continuous shrill from the democrats and anti war left, is sweet music to our enemies. Liken to bin Laden himself, operating behind enemy lines!
