Opinion: Challenging Supremacy is an Obligation

Comments


We get it. WAAAAHHHH!! You hate America. Maybe you should leave before any more liberal trash laws are swept out by the court.
Good article! I hate that America has people like Viking 2000 living in it.
The comments proposed by Viking2000 underscore a serious failure of conservatives who say, "If you don't like it, move." You can't really ever escape the U.S. Yes, you can move. But when wedding parties in the Middle East are hit by drone strikes, you realize that the country's shadow extends across the globe. Your best bet is to try and fix things domestically. That's the only real shot you have at keeping the U.S.'s influence from you.
As much as I hate to disappoint or diminish the sanctimony of anyone who spews the tired, old "love it or leave it" refrain, I have too many years invested in voting, writing and activism to pack my bags when the water gets choppy. I owe more to the country that has afforded me so much and I owe more to my grandchildren who deserve an even better country than the one I've lived my life in. I'm not quitting, I'm not leaving and I'm not alone.
@Waterman - That's commendable. The same people who say "Love it or leave it" are also the same people who bemoan quitters. They really don't think things through.
Beautifully written and frighteningly true. Makes a potent case for why we must vote to restore sane, sensible, and democratic leadership.
