Morally, certainly not. It would be far more wrong to go along with something blindly than it would be to question it if one has doubts.

No because this nation was founded on freedom of speech and it would be wrong to silence critics HOWEVER, it must be tactful and in no way to demean the President or our military.

I will also add that the same should apply in peacetime too.


What in your opinion would consititute demeaning the President?

To require that freedom of speech be 'polite' is absurd. And conservatives never missed a chance to demean Clinton when he was President, war or no war.

Republicans criticism of Clinton did not hurt us around the world

Bush hurt us around the world, not Democrats' criticism of Bush.
