Durbin

Now Sen. Durbin (D-Il) is blaming the media for "taking his comments (likening our military to Nazi's, the Soviet gulags, and Pol Pot) out of context".

Sen. Durbin, You are a flaming idiot if you think that you can play that game. Yes, the purported conditions that you were citing came from an e-mail, but your remarks prefacing the "information" were all yours.

YOU were the one likening our military to some of the most heinious human events in history, and in so doing were giving a signal to our enemies that they were succeeding in causing a division of will and purpose in our political ranks while we're in a state of war.

In my mind, that was not mere disagreement with policy, but sedition. I firmly believe that not only should you be stripped from your Seat, but you should be prosecuted, convicted by the words out of your own mouth, and incarcerated.

No citizen should blindly follow ANY administration, it is the duty of every citizen to protest when they feel that our government is acting in a manner that is not in keeping with our traditions,laws and Constitution, but having said that, there is a right way and a wrong way to disagree. You,sir, most certainly followed the wrong way, and you should suffer the consequences of your actions.

As a Senator,you should be capable of judging the effect of your public statements can have on our country, the blatent disregard for those effects
you demonstrated can only lead one to conclude that you are not fit to be in the position that you hold.
