Today's Ridiculous Thought

When I protested the war in Afghanistan, I was accused of being anti-American by the New York Post and Lynn Cheney because I had the dastardly opinion that war with Afghanistan would not lead to Osama Bin Laden's capture, and might just contribute to islamophobia and racism already running rampant throughout the country. Now, these same accusers are disrupting democratic meetings and shouting other people out of debates merely because others disagree with them. What is anti-American? I wouldn't be able to say. Murder definately is anti-American. Beer drinking definately is American. Expressing an opinion (that turned out to be true)? Preventing others from expressing opinion by shouting them down in a meeting?
