Point 4. Is the author an American? There you go. You still seem to think criticism is unpatriotic.

While so many applaud this email. Allow me to offer a rebuttle. I'm not the author of this email, so I can't answer your questions about it. The reason I like it, is that it offers a good critique of some of the reasons used to promote war against Iraq. You raise some valid points in your rebuttal, but I think it misses the point of the email. Bush has used a lot of different reasons to attack Iraq, and some of them are contradictory. Which has caused many to feel uncomfortable with our rush to war. If the reasons given to attack Iraq were internally consistent, I think Bush would have more support, both domestically and internationally.
