I know it's a hard concept to grasp but

You can believe America needs to be strong defensively while still condemning George Bush's bumbling strategy in Iraq.

You can believe that America should pursue Bin Laden, Zawahiri and their ilk mercilessly, while still believing that unauthorized wiretaps and torture are wrong.

You can believe that Social Security needs to be fixed while still believing that Bush's plan is bogus.

You can believe that Congress is still the best political construction for representation of the people, while still stating that Tom Delay and Jack Abramoff and the rest of the Republican corruption mafia are thieves.

You can believe in God and still think He shouldn't have a throne in Washington.

You can believe unnecessary taxation is wrong, while still seeing that tax cuts for the wealthy coupled with unprecedented and out of control federal expenditures are driving us us deeper into a debt that we owe to foreign countries that our children will likely inherit.

In short, you can be a loyal American and be disgusted by what Bush and his cohorts are doing to the country.

It may even be your duty.
