Your country is at war. Deal with it.

Quit worrying so much about the aide and comfort of your country's enemies and worry more about what those enemies want to do to you, your family, your friends and your fellow Americans..

Truth and our Constitution come first above all. Our military swear to uphold the Constitution first and foremost. When we resort to torture, to detaining children and placing them in "re-education camps", to baiting a people we occupy so we can kill them indiscriminately... and our political leaders sit worrying about an AD... about SPEECH... which is a fundamental part, nay, THE most fundamental part of our Constitution... then it is time for that political person to be replaced. I did not fight to quell speech, no matter how harshly I judge it. I did not fight to defend our Constitution just to watch greedy, evil men, try and tear it apart for their own gain. There was a time when truth trumped political expediency... but, that time was when we were the oppressed; not the oppressors. There was a time when doing what was right for our country took precedence... but, that was a time when people were willing to sacrifice for their beliefs instead of screaming them as they ran the other way. There was a time when having religious freedom, the right to worship as we wished, drove our forefathers to leave countries that worked to suppress, oppress, and even torture... but, that was before they could get power and oppress others, suppress others, and even torture them. What have we become... and where did my country go? Chris,

In a word; yes.

Truth and our Constitution come first above all.

Our military swear to uphold the Constitution first and foremost.

There was a time when doing what was right for our country took precedence... but, that was a time when people were willing to sacrifice for their beliefs instead of screaming them as they ran the other way.

There was a time when having religious freedom, the right to worship as we wished, drove our forefathers to leave countries that worked to suppress, oppress, and even torture... but, that was before they could get power and oppress others, suppress others, and even torture them.

What have we become... and where did my country go?

Reid seems at a loss. This is not good for the country and not good for the Democratic party. I am sure that there is a lot of behind the scenes stuff going on but it is difficult to keep giving him more chances when he (and Pelosi) disappoint us again and again. Things seem to be spiraling out of control and no one has stepped up to lead us out of the mess we are in. ....Stan I agree that at times Sen. Reid seems at a loss.
