A great empire, like a great cake, is most easily diminished at the edges ~ Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin sure got it right. These fringe types totally ruin the "cake". Questioning someone's patriotism without cause is about the most un-American thing you can do. As I've worked the phone banks for Obama, I've talked to one or two of them myself. In one call, I was questioned about mine too, but heard silence on the other end when I asked if they'd served their country in the military, like I have. Unless you're a seccessionist or have denounced democracy and the American way, then where's the problem?
