Poor ole Jeb

1. The fact that anyone could consider people who disagree wth the President and voice their opposition to be "traitors", and yet also consider themselves patriotic Americans is perplexing. "Our" forefathers fought and died so that we would all have EXACTLY that right. It is in doing so- criticizing our national leaders and/orpolicies -that we exercise what makes this country great. Anyone who would silence THOSE cries might as well rip up our constitution and bill of rights.

2. Noelle Bush- The media has as much right to publicise her life, as she and her family have to use their political power to ensure that she goes to rehab and not to jail. Neither action sounds particularly savory, does it?

3. I would support any action that I felt was sincerely directed towards ensuring that what happened 9-11 NEVER EVER happened again. Anyone in NYC, whether they were fortunate enough to have a bloody, dusty survivor come home to them or not, would agree to that. But our government is not doing that. Logic points to the "axis of evil" as being centered in Saudi Arabia and our government is doing NOTHING about it, because our President and VP have to protect all their oil buddies. After the overwhelming evidence we've seen of Saudi involvement in terrorist activities, war in Iraq seems like a red herring to me- the president ahs to look like he's doing SOMTHING doesn't he?

I LOVE this country. I have members of my family who put their life on the line for it every day. I love it not because of what it IS or has been, but because of what it WANTS to be, the vision of a democracy with justice and equality. You people who want to silence others threaten ALL of that.
