If you speak out against the war does that mean you aren't a American?

Question

And does our constutition say you are not being patriotic if you don't believe in the President or the War. and is it true that most republicans are weathier than democrats? but dumber than most democrates is that true as well? are they mostly liars and cheats? and did Bill Clinton's extra martial affairs hurt our enconomy in any way. are Republicans so unsure of themselves that they will use any tactic to decieve the American people so that we will vote for them. and are we still making the rich richer and the poor poorer or that our children can't get a decent education or that people are losing their homes is it ok.Most Republicans always seems to blame everything on the Democrates, When will most republicans start accepting responsibilty for the mess we are in and stop blaming everyone else .President Bush is worried more about how much money he will make when he leaves office ,while our Men and women are dying in Iraq. no need to critque me I know my errors. thank you

Answer 1

The first Bill of Right, drafted by Madison, clearly states that freedom of speech is a natural human right. There is nothing wrong to speak out against the war, the president, or even America as long as you feel the urge to say what you feel. People living in America have been indoctrinated, a technique once used by the Nazi, into believing that you are unpatriotic for speaking out. No, only patriotic people speak out. Like parents who teach by punishing their kids, you, by speaking out and expressing what you think about this country, show that you truly care and love this country.

Answer 2

not at all but you have to realize that much like a family that has disputes, there is a time and place to discuss it. you most likely would not take a advertisements and tell the world of your issues.

when you are a former head of state or a person of influence you have a higher standard of duty to not provide aide and comfort to the enemy for they will take this as confirming that you believe that they are right and America is wrong and in some instances, cost lives..

i don't think there are more rich republicans than democrats. there are many rich people on both sides and who play both sides.

bill Clinton's affair did hurt America because it deflected the same situation we have today and if he had not had his mind on defending himself, he might have been able to be more effective in capturing and killing osama bin ladin.

bin ladin echoed many of your sentiments in this 'speech' today so he is listening and his is emboldened by this so i guess you must decide for yourself what you will do with your free speech.

i think you make many erroneous assumptions on what bush does or does not think. he is already rich and doesn't have to worry about money when he leaves office as the president's salary may seem huge to me and you but to the others it is a mere pittance.

Answer 3

It does not make you American to speak out against the war and the President. In the Declaration of Independence it states that if you think that the government is not working it is the responsibility of the people to throw out that government. The First Amendment to the Constitution (that document that Bush called a God Damned piece of paper) declares that we Americans have the right to free speech (without free speech zones) and the right to redress grievances.

Also as for disagreeing with the President. To quote a famous Conservative. "You can disagree with the President and still support the troops". As for asking for an exit strategy will even Bush said that you cannot have victory without an exit strategy.

Answer 4

Of course not. I had a cousin in Iraq and he came back hating George Bush and our government. What would republicans say about him that he was unamerican? You can support the soldiers and not the war. Only Republicans would make you think you are unamerican for disagreeing with there horrible choices that have endangered so many american lives. George Bush is the one killing soldiers. We all make mistakes but for once I would like to hear a Republican admit it. That this war was a mistake.

Answer 5

Speaking out against the war is in on way unAmerican. I am against the war but I support and stand behind our troops that are serving. Your ? was wonderful and long, have you considered political office :-). The rich are still getting richer and the poor are still suffering, we really have to do our homework when it comes to the people we elect to office, be it democrat or republican. We have to stop voting on name recognition. We also have to make sure our children are learning all there is too learn, even if they are not getting it in school.

Answer 6

Thats alot of questions. Speaking your mind is what makes you an american, as is having your own opinion about whatever the heck you want to. I personally lean republican at the polls. i really doubt that being president of this great nation is worth the "monetary benefits" alone. I cant anwer all your questions in black and white because i dont think these questions have hard and fast answers. take care an dont believe the

Answer 7

Only stupid people think that our opposition to the president and the war somehow gives the enemy an advantage in combat.

I have $1 million for anyone with a logical explanation of how our troops are less effective in battle because someone 10,000 miles away waives an anti-war banner.

Answer 8

Um. You really wasted a lot of time typing all that up didn't you?

Anyways Democrats also will do anything for votes, Democrats also dig up the stupidest of **** to pin on REpublicans, and Democrats blame EVERYTHING on Bush.

So don't think you Democrats are oh so innocent either.

Answer 9

Not at all. That means you ARE an American! This helps support our freedoms. The biggest problem we have is the government is way too large and growing fast. That is the problem that is shutting down our economy and taking away our freedoms with all the regulations. I am very grateful for people who oppose the war and anything else they disagree with. Thanks and I hope someone can get control of our of control government growth so freedom can prevail.

Answer 10

1, Clinton failed to take Obama when offered.

2. He allowed a "wall" to be "erected" (no pun intended) that prevented information to be shared that would have prevented 9/11.

3. Dems have controlled public education for years amd have run it into the ground.

4. Clinton was nearly broke when he left office and is now quite wealthy, getting millions just for speaking, though it is mostly payback for pardons and other backroom deals he made while president.

5. The economy now is stronger than it was for most of the 90's; the difference is a huge bias in the mainstream media; they are always gloom and doom when a Republican is in the White House, and are shills for Democrats.

6. Clinton did more than have affairs; he is a rapist and sexual predator.
