Chatty, you are wise and you speak for more Americans than may be apparent. Far too many fear the hate filled rhetoric that erupts at every patriotic utterance. Anything spoken in support of this country or our leaders is attacked, and the most destructive attacks come, not from our enemies, but from our own people.

We are at war. And in wartime we must speak out and we must speak loud, loud enough to drown out the voice of those who would destroy our country from within.

It is time to stand behind our leaders and pull together and not apart.
