What I find most short-sighted is how quick some (Skipper, I'm talking about you here) are to lump anyone into this camp, simply because they aren't able or willing to take a bit of time and think about what some thoughts might really mean.
Guess what? The very same Islamo-fascisim that threatens us today has been influenced and even encouraged by our own country in the recent past.
Does this make me an America hater?
If so our country is in a heap of trouble...
As the spectre of terror has now made you afraid of the same thoughts and ideas that will lead us to a victory in this fight.
This is the real "covert enemy" that will undermine our success.

That article wasn't mean to question your patriotism, I don't even know you.
I just read what you and others post. Hell I don't know Skip.
You can drawn your own conclusions regarding your own patriotism, I firmly know where mine stands.
Articles, books and free speech as a whole are meant to provoke thought and debate. After reading that article you immediately stood up and defended your patriotism.....good. I applaud that, I wish more people would.
Sometimes the liberals tend to think that their wack jobs and sh*t stirrers (sp) are more correct than those from the conservative side.
Like Michael Moore, Bill Maher and James Carville are any more correct in their rants than Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity or Ann Coulter???? LOL Absolutely NOT!
I found that article to be a very interesting angle on a portion of society that in my opinion clearly exists.
