George,
 Are we getting to be so wimpy a country that we can not take criticism.
I would like to think we are strong enough that we would examine the
statement, and leave it lie to bite the original sender if we think it
to not be true. Believe it or not, there are many Americans-true blue
Americans-who do not believe in this war. And, they are true Americans,
they are the differing opinions that make this country the great country
that it is. They have been to war, and not been to war, they are the
well informed, and the ignorant. They are Democrat, Republicans, and all
the different political parties that encompass our one damn beautiful
country. And the only thing that will make this country less than what
it is, and head it down the path to mediocrity is to silence them!
John
I spent 12+ years in our nations miltary protecting the right to say
those words.
