That's why it always cracks me up to hear the Hysterical Left slam and attack the Right for the real and imagined racism from the Right.

How little they know of their OWN Party's despicable history when it comes to racism and racist actions...

Over and over again, in wartime, America simply jettisons inconvenient parts of the Constitution -- in an effort to suspend our inherent divisive nature for the duration of the larger conflict.

And even more recent example (yesterday) was Holder's statement that his DOJ is trying to formulate a law that Congress can then pass which the DOJ can use to prosecute Assange...

I guess that Holder was absent the day they taught LAW at Law School....

A thoroughly engrossing commentary, CW..

A great read....

Sometimes we get so myopic about our current problems that we forget how good we have it. Thank you for the historical perspective, CW.
