2. duh. there is only
2 choices. Good or bad, right or wrong, dem or rethug, us or them...

Now, CHOOSE! right?

My dad told me how at his college during Vietnam there were lots of people who said some version of, "You're either with us or against us."

I thought liberty and freedom meant that you were free to disagree. You can be with us...against us...to the side of us...near us...far from us...

Let's just get these MSM pundit apologists out from behind us.

3. Vietnam had a lot of slogans

Peace with Honor.

America: Love it or Leave it.

My country right or wrong.

6. Sure it does
The question is simple - why is it good for democracy that we allow those with power to abuse it?
