Teddy Roosevelt, of all people, was a man who could discern the difference between criticism and defeatism.

Bill works very hard to make certain we don't call criticism traitorous

No, criticism per se is not traitorous - but I do not give the blanket blessing which you imply, that there is simply no such thing as traitorous criticism.

Criticism which is done knowing it gives aid and comfort to the enemy, especially if it is done for that purpose, in the hopes that it will help American forces to be defeated, can arguably be called traiterous.

The San Francisco demonstrator whose sign read "Support the Insurgents of Fallujah" was no patriot, imo.
