I'm sorry but you have placed the emphasis on the wrong syllable. Rights not exercized lead to catastrophe. It is the duty of any who worthy of the name Patriot, to question. If you weren't blind, you'd see. Those who don't question are an active danger to the nation. They are not patriots or citizens either. They are the enemy of freedom. They have chosen the death of passivity over the life of reason. Because your words lead to disaster they require challenge. Sorry. Stay out of the road.

I think we should declare Cad an enemy combatant for not exercising his rights to question the government. It's all defend-defend-defend. A few months in Gitmo will set you straight, boy.

EDIT: That goes for you too, Miguel.

Adding the Wink icon would make your sarcasm more obvious.

Actually in this case I am not being sarcastic.

You are a liberal who favors a "war on drugs".
And i'm a conservative (neocon according to Red), who is in favor of complete legalization of all drugs.
What is this, upside down day?

No, I placed the right emphasis on the whole thing, Hillary. This concept of "duty to criticize" is BS. It is a RIGHT - no more, no less. Now if in your opinion someone who criticizes things, is a patriot - I don't have a problem with that if they really know what it is they are criticizing. The "duty", as you put it, is to stand up and do what is right and necessary to protect this nation. What you are implying by stating that it's a patriots "duty" means that if someone doesn't criticize their gov't they aren't a Patriot -which simply is not true. There are a lot of patriots who have not criticized the gov't. It's a RIGHT - nothing more, nothing less.

So let me get this straight. It's my DUTY to question the gov't. If I don't, I am not being a good citizen? Do you even think when you write this stuff? What about voting? Now it's my DUTY to vote, not my RIGHT? As an American, I have the right to lie down on my floor and eat potato chips all freakin' week. I am NOT duty bound to ANYTHING, unless I want to be. That's what being FREE is all about.

Doesn't take a genius to figure out how. Just quit your job, go on welfare, and he will be supporting you. His taxes are already going to plenty of other's, one more won't be a big deal.

Well of course you especially have the talent and need to bury yourself deeper. Unfortunatley you are full of crap as usual. In the first place the duty to criticize does not imply that everything is criticized, only that everything is critiqued. And there are no patriots who have not criticized the government because not a day goes by without the governernment fing up. Clime down from your sophistical horse and smell the horse poop. The government will always need to be watched by real patriots. That you don't conprende indicates you aren't in that league. You are part of the problem. You are a toady and become more so every day as you raise greater and greater arguments to defend your position. You are one of those frightened types, perhaps, who feels that any silght flaw and everything will collapse. You are profoundly imperfect. Get used to it. Just try practicing sa

Nope- still not "duty" - just a right. I didn't say you said that everything needed to be criticized - you implied that the lack of criticism means someone can't be a patriot. I'm saying that is BS. There are many patriots who do not criticize. Criticism isn't a requirement for being a patriot.

Well, even the founding fathers had a profound distrust of the government. That's why they let us all have guns, so we can shoot the bastards if they get outta hand. Second amendment, baby. Now, I just need to go buy a gun. Just in case...

no, i think hes so frightened that he feels he needs [as he is duty bound] to criticize.

 

[sandorski]

Sheesh, Right vs Duty, since Rights are an extension of priviledge given by some authority(Constitution/government/or other)does anyone feel comfortable having the Right to question when that Right is given by the same you might question?

OTOH, a Duty is an extension from oneself. It may be defined from an outward source, but its' exercise and authority extends from the Self out. It is thus a much more reliable method in which to retain Freedom.

That's not to say that questioning authority is not a Right, for it certainly is, but Rights can be taken away. If they were, then only Duty remains, how one defines their "Duty" in such a situation would depend on what they deem important, "Authority" or "Freedom". Methinks the Founding Fathers would choose Duty to Freedom.

Well, as I said, Caddy, there is no argument is too absurd for you not be willing to persist in and I'm here only trying to show that. I know you can't change your mind. You can't admit that the duty to criticize is much more fundamental to the maintainence of freedom and democracy, much more essentially core important, than just having that right. As I said, there is no real Patriot who doesn't driticize the government, becuause such a patriot of necessity would have to be blind. Clearly there is a reason, the exact same one, why you can't see that. He woh blows the same horn in the same way gets the same note. It's ok for Caddy One Note if that's waht makes you happy.

What are you talking about? Democratic Governemnt is a trust and like any other trust with officers/trustees created for the benefit of it's holders it's subject to oversight and openess..or at least used to be. Once you loose that your on the road to dictatorship.

Are you making this up about hillary? Here's what Bill said to his critics (ACLU and consititutional conservatives) when ramrodding his anti-american Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act though congress.

?There is nothing patriotic about pretending that you can love your country but despise your government.? (geez what a blanket statement...who has'nt at one time or another..how about every April 15?)

Sounds like someone at least in that family does'nt like critsizm of thier governemnt or it's policy.

Hillary has been flapping her lips about this "criticism or the gov't" She's trying to redefine patriotism to mean criticizing the gov't. But ofcourse when she was in the White House - it was all just "right-wing conspiracy" talk.

I agree with moonbeam.

To question is a duty. To question isn't to criticize, as this insecure administration would conclude, but to seek answers in order to make an informed opinion, whether or not that ultimately leads one to either criticism or support.
