And Not a Moment Too Soon

Dear Readers,

This summer, our safety was undermined by the Supreme Court's liberal activist decision in Hamdan. The attorney for this terrorist has been worshipped as a hero by the west-coast, liberal elite, rule of law mongerers. This attorney, Lieutenant Commander Charles Swift, sought to ensure that we would have to fight them here rather than fighting them there. It was a sad day for our legal system.

In a stroke of good luck for our national safety, this terrorist coddler has been forced out of the Navy. Thankfully, we no longer have to deal with at least one America hating lawyer. One down, one liberal activist Court to go.

Mr. Swift, I know the liberals celebrate your treason. So, go march with them as they lose another election. The GOP is the party of moral values and national safety. You and the other liberals will just continue to be whining losers, even as you fabricate more "Foleygates" to make it look like the GOP is incompetent. Have fun with your ilk.

Mr. Swift, why do you hate America?

What exactly is a "Liberal Elitist"? Most of the wealthy, elitist-type people are republican, aren't they?

Just curious. Also...I'm not certain why alternate points of view are proof that one "hates America." Isn't Democracy built on healthy discussion, discourse and disagreement?

Not trying to be rude. Simply trying to understand. Thanks for helping to clear that up.

A liberal elitist is the typical Holloywood-type, latte-sipping type, and hybrid-driving type who think they're better than us real Americans. These people make me sick.

You need to understand that we're at war. Everything changed on 9/11. Disagreement right now undermines the war effort, and that's treason.

I hope that helps clear things up. Welcome, and come back often!

Thanks for the clarification. Not sure I agree with the undermining comment (does that make me treasonous? :))

Henry David Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience" essay was about this topic, and I tend to agree with him. If you were in a position where the country you loved was engaged in a war that you didn't approve of, how would go about making your opinions felt? Do you believe it’s the duty of all Americans to offer support for efforts that they don’t agree with?

I’ve been thinking recently that so much interaction between the two political parties (and their supporters) has turned into an arena where there is no right and wrong, winners and losers: it’s simply a contest about who can scream louder. With that in mind, I’ve been playing around with creating a forum for members of both parties to try to discuss their opinions and policies in a civil and neutral setting. Anne Coulter and Al Franken would both be banned.

Thanks very much for your clarifications and opinions.

Your points are well spoken, but you have to understand that things changed on 9-11. Our divinely-inspired President decided we had to fight them there so we don't have to fight them here. Freedom is on the march. The post-9-11 world is a new world, and questioning our leadership is treason (and right now, our divinely-inspired President is charging someone with treason for the first time in 50 years).

Have you forgotten the lessons of 9-11?

Thanks so much! Your opinion, too, is well spoken. Believe it or not, I'm all for war if it's for a good cause. I was actually on the verge of joining the army following 9/11. I live not 20 minutes from where the towers once stood.

I get very uncomfortable about the current U.S. war, however for a couple of reasons which I really hope you can help me clarify:

1. Why exactly are we there? In all honesty, I'm having a difficult time keeping this one straight. First it was supposed to be because Iraq was in league with terrorists. Then it was because they had the capabilities to BE terrorists. Then it was for freedom.

2. Would it not make more sense to focus that military strength on a more deserving target...like Bin Laden? It really angers me to see so many Americans dying for something when the guy we should be after is laughing at us from the hills and continuing to plot evil.

I love this country. I wept and gave blood on 9/11. And not a day goes by that I don't pray for my fellow citizens fighting and dying in our name. 9/11 should serve as a wake-up call and a rallying point for our nation. But I fear it's sometimes being used as an excuse to wield absolute power on issues that have nothing to do with our country's darkest hour.

As you are someone who experienced the tragedy that occurred on 9/11, I can fully understand both your support for America and your doubts about our current policies. I hope that I can raise you to my level of clarity on these issues.

1) We're fighting in Iraq for one simple reason: we're fighting them there so we don't have to fight them here. If we leave, they'll follow us here. Never mind that we created the situation; all that matters is what the future effects would be.

2) Like our divinely-inspired President said, he really doesn't think about Bin Laden. We're worried about terrorism, not Bin Laden. Now, some people want to think Bin Laden is directly linked to terrorism, but that was before the post-9/11 world. Today, we're just focused on terrorism.

I understand your fears, but all you need to do is trust our divinely-inspired President. He has our best interests in mind, all the time.

If you're ever interested in discussing this or other topics more in-depth, feel free to come back any time or to email me at teddytrumbles@yahoo.com.

Thank you for loving America!
