"I have a right to my own opinions"

People have a right to their own opinions. What they don't have is a right to their own facts.

The fact is nearly evey 'man on the street' in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria, Yemen, Iran, Saudi, and 90% of the other mohameden ratholes of the world live, sleep, eat, and breathe this "Death To America" BS they've been spoon fed by their 'leaders'.

And a very, very large part of the problem is the fact that Bush, Rice, and most of those dimwits at State actually believe the exact opposite.

We're going to get a wake up call pretty soon that's going to make 9-11 look like a Sunday school picnic. God help us if the Dems are in charge when it happens.

"People have a right to their own opinions."

I recently read a very subtle discussion of the difference between a freedom and a right. Today, these are often conflated, but they are in fact different.

For instance, God gives us free will, which means that we are free to wreak evil, but not that we have a right to wreak evil.

Similarly, we are free to be wrong, but do not have a right to be wrong.

"And a very, very large part of the problem is the fact that Bush, Rice, and most of those dimwits at State actually believe the exact opposite."

No argument about the morons at State, but I hope you're wrong about Bush.

"We're going to get a wake up call pretty soon that's going to make 9-11 look like a Sunday school picnic. God help us if the Dems are in charge when it happens."

No argument there.

Why is it so so so difficult for the average American to believe what you said ? Most people around here (NY city metro area ) think I'm crazy when I say we are in real danger and that we will get hit again .Meanwhile New Yorkers are walking around with targets on their backs and they don't know it .
