Without dissent, we're a little like Nazi Germany, all marching in lockstep off into oblivion. We're the most powerful on the planet, by an order of magnitude, and subject to the arrogance and criminality of power. We think we're superior, but that superiority will be quickly lost without dissent and vigilance.

If we don't have dissidents, we'll never clean up the growth of incompetence and corruption. The more the merrier. What do we have to be afraid of?

If a soldier wants to believe all is might and right with the USA, so much the better for our fighting forces who have to be absolutely prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice.

But it's a mistake as civilians to idolize politicians like Bush, Clinton or anyone to the extent that reality is lost.

Politically villifying dissidents is what caused Vietnam to be an even greater disaster.
