When you meet a superior officer, you salute, not the man, but the rank.I guess you have never served your country.

haqi, this is a concept that the BDS afflicted can't understand being that, IMO, the vast majority of people infected with BDS have never served. There's a big difference between voicing an opposing position and unmitigated hate filled bashing, it's the same difference between right and wrong......

RE: "the Demorats would have tried to have him removed from office through the rules of the constitution."

Let's be serious. The Ds and Rs for all practical purposes act as a single party system these days. They get their campaign money from the same places, they spend your tax dollars the same way, they are bribed by the same lobbyists, and they increase taxes at the same rate. You can visit either party's official website, and find the one thing they have in common is neither party endorses a party platform. Any perception of liberal or conservative is in the eyes of the beholder and is not a stated principal of the party concerned. They both make frothy speeches on throw away issues, while robbing the country blind in the resulting smoke screen.

The US Constitution has been gutted six ways from Sunday by both parties, and the most simple to understand, plain English rule of law in America results in 4-5 splits in its interpretation at the Supreme Court level. No big surprise there. Anyone with half a brain should be able to understand that laws which protect the rights of the people against the government are rightfully resented by the government it is intended to protect against.

RE: "I ain't a damn yankee."

You poor dear. The civil war is over. The libs won, just like they did in the revolt against England. The libs always win. In nature it's called survival of the fittest.
