"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself."
Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC)
I just want the media to do their job. Unbiased reporting on the facts of a story not the usual liberal slant they have been doing for the last 40 years.
That wasn't a quote, that was MY answer to the question of this thread. If the media would report without bias and the democrats would pull together with the administration everything else would take care of itself and the iraq problem would be solved quickly.
When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.
You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.
What you aren't old enough to remember is from the 1945 to 1980-something, the free world lived in fear of communist aggression. As late as the mid 70s, the USSR invaded Afghanistan. It was a real fear we lived under just like the fear of nuclear anihilation. It was no less a fear for us just because the fears never materialized and you were born after they were gone.
You can't just sit back and "let them kill themselves" when they want to kill us first.

If the freedom of speech is taken away
then dumb and silent we may be led,
like sheep to the slaughter.
