I have the deepest respect for all the people who risked their lives in battle, for I realize that many of them might even agree with me, but were following orders. I believe that true honor or patriotism comes from whether or not I believe in the US constitution, which I fervently do. It will be a sad thing indeed for democracy if opposition to the government is construed as opposition to the country, i.e. its constitution.

As for Clinton and Vietnam, I acknowledge that conscientious objection to warfare has to be respected, and in any case, his explanations for not participating in the war are far more credible than those given by Gingrich, Limbaugh and other sundry self-proclaimed patriots.

Dipy.
