A Bridge Too Far
Freedom of speech and political dissent in America?
That's sooo pre-9/11.
That's sooo pre-9/11.
At issue is a crudely lettered sign, scribbled on the back of a menu, that was held up at an awards dinner and read, “We did not vote for Bush.”
By e-mail, angry bridge players have accused the women of “treason” and “sedition.”
...
“Freedom to express dissent against our leaders has traditionally been a core American value,” she wrote by e-mail. “Unfortunately, the Bush brand of patriotism, where criticizing Bush means you are a traitor, seems to have penetrated a significant minority of U.S. bridge players.”

Thought For The Day
Anyone who, while engaging in Very Adult Political Discourse™, obsesses over whether Hillary Clinton has a "Monster Ass" should first check the mirror to see if their own is blocking traffic.
Thanks
In memory of those who gave their lives and to those who put their lives on the line for us every day.
Thank You All
This post was late for personal reasons and I regret the delay.

In a related matter:
I recently discovered, on line, a craven personal attack on me that consisted of a very sick, entirely manufactured scenario involving me and my great uncle Thomas Gordon, Royal Hamilton Light Infantry, R.C.I.C. - who gave his life August 19, 1942 at Dieppe.
For now I'll just say that I believe the names of those who gave their lives for our freedom should never have their good names dragged through the excrement of imaginary scenarios written to serve partisan political beliefs.
I'll also add that, knowing where it's coming from, I am not surprised by it at all.
