America......I don't understand it! There's is evil happening in the world that is a direct threat to the security and freedom of our great nation as well as others! Does nobody want to fight for it? Does no one care? I am disheartened and dissapointed in a majority that takes what they have for granted and wants to sit back and let this happen. What does that say about America....that we are hypocritical cowards. We are supposed to be a country of freedom and patriotism. As of now I am not proud of America for giving no support to the troops for not supporting Bush for standing up for the very freedom you carelessly take for granted everyday you walk on American soil. When everyone sould have a flag outside their house, only families of the soldiers and retired veterans have flags....they seem like the only ones who really know what it means to be ably to live in this country. We are privilaged and to just sit back and relax in a bubble is not an option!

We are a one nation under God and indivisible...we have a duty under God to defend what right and good in this world and to spread our democracy and freedom where the world suffers. Will no one stand up for that?!!!!!

Dear... just because people don't support Bush doesn't mean they don't support the troops. Bush is a dumba** and should have never been in charge of this country. Our military have had support from people.
In case you aren't aware, they use the threat of terror to try and control the masses. They try to instill fear in us so they can do what they want to deteriorate the Constitution of the United States. We have allowed the criminals we call politicians to take away rights. Bush thinks he has the right to ignore the constitution. He believes it is just a piece of paper. The is only ONE reason why he should be kicked out of office.
Dont' come here waving your flag like you are the only true American. There are many who have come before you and they too are dissappointed with what Bush has done to this country. So I guess you think they aren't true Americans? Those who fought in previous wars or served in the military? yeah well wake up and smell the coffee.
I do fly a flag outside of my house and believe me it's not to support Bush or this stupid war. I support the troops and hopefully the freedoms we still have. So back off and stop thinking your the only true American. Twit

It's one part wishful thinking, and one part rationalized cowardice. The reality is too much for many people to deal with willingly. There's nothing political about it, it's just human nature not to assume the worst. Until some more bad things start happening in this country, and people realize how limited their options have become, that's not going to change.
This country is based on, Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. As such, this society will never voluntarily compromise those values until someone else does it for them. All you can do in the meantime, for your own peace of mind is pray (and stay away from high value targets).

I joined the military thinking that was what I was doing. The fight isn't a fight of fists and guns it is now a fight for the mind. This dangerous new aged thought is going to destroy our nation. We must repent of our sins and seek God.
