JohnEH: I respect your military service, but please, this statement is a crock. In the past 6 years our freedoms have been steadily and continually erroded.
As for democracy, ours is actually a republic and defines our culture and who we are. Just as other countries are defined by monarchies, parliaments, socialism and communism. There is room for all.
Republicans have historically been averse to foreign adventures. We need to return to our roots.
