Who here is not grateful to be an American? To speak out gives us the opportunity to make progressive changes for the enrichment of life globally without resolving to war. The computer will be more aid in bringing peace to the world than all the bullets and bombs combined.
By the way... The Rapture Rights are just as dangerous as any Islamic extremist group.

If you live in Corporate America and wish to protest the corporate president or the corporate war then you get to do so from a cage miles away from those you're protesting against.
Funny how right wingers so compliant with and intent on taking away our liberties lean on those same liberties so heavily as a reason why America is great
Their hypocrisy truly knows no boundaries

It seems that some Americans need to be reminded that we are not just fighting for freedom in the Middle East; our troops are fighting for every American to keep our freedoms at home. One freedom that some seem to take for granted is our freedom to question our government. People are demanding to know what military strategy is planned for Iraq and how long it will take. When our President answers these two questions, he is also answering the same questions that the terrorists are asking. The technology of the world-wide web combined with us exercising our freedoms is constantly putting our brave soldiers in more danger.

sure in the Islamic country I live in ( Malaysia ) you can protest all you like. we are a democracy, part of the commonwealth. we do multi party elections too. internet censorship, not here. you can speak out in editorials too. we even have anti government newspapers. and check this out, Christian newspapers!
Americans get more war censorship then we do, in fact we have zero censorship about Irak or Afgan wars, you get raw unPC footage from independent journalists not in bed's

Big difference between protests here and in Islamic fundamentalist countries.
in America, most protests don't involve IEDs.

Sure didn't work to well for the Kurds. Unless getting to Inhale Nerve Gas (Not a WMD though), directed on you by your President, and die a Painful and Miserable Death, en masse, is considered a perk.....
Peace Warrior: As someone who spent over 20 years working in Corporate America, as a Mid-Level manager, not a "Corporate Honcho" I have no idea what the heck you are talking about. But if it gives you someone to hate and blame for your failures, then you are free in America to spout your non-sense....YIKES!!!
