Can the Bushbots explain how a responsible patriot is supposed to exercise their conscience and freedom of speech and object to a given military action? he "once the boots are on the ground" fallacy just seems like a cowardly way to silence critics. I can't speak for all Bushbots, but I can tell you my answer to your question. You can ask -- no, demand -- that your representatives in Congress cut off funds for the troops in Iraq and get their boots off the ground. That's what a responsible patriot would do. All the rest is political posturing. I don't know whether an anti-surge resolution will embolden the enemy. But I doubt it will do anything to discourage the enemy either, and it may well depress the morale of our own soldiers. To leave American troops in harm's way while undercutting them at home is immoral. |
