"Indeed it does. But I remember Vietnam and how unbridled and irrational free speech and dissent deflated the morale of the servicemen. I wonder if the average soldier in Iraq is thinking the voters at home have forgotten him.

And I see other parallels. These demonstrations are too organized and the Democrats are standing ready to receive and address the protestors and encourage them. Moreover, the press is covering the entire story just right for the political gain of the Democrats - divide and conquer. Division between class and ethnicity always works to the Democrats' benefit.

I also remember the Clinton impeachment. It was about obstruction of justice and perjury - but the press and the Democrats misdirected the issue to "sex sex sex". The emotions ran so high at that time that even here on the forum most people bought the "sex sex sex" mantra hook, line and sinker. That was "subject number one" and Clinton skated with an acquittal in the Senate.

They manipulated us then, they are manipulating us now. If we let it happen, we can only blame ourselves."

All perfect examples of why having one entity in this case the MSM control all information. Freedom of speech is worth 20 vietnams, its worth every person in our country. I'd rather America be destroyed than live under oppression. You don't get this conservatism thing do ya.
