Hi Art,

Lori ===>

>>I'll not sit by and listen to you run down my country, my President, my husband, and all these other fine men and women in here who put their lives on the line to give you the freedom to complain.<<

Hmm ... Looks like Lori feels that 'her' President has put his life on the line. Who is this President she is referring to, who has put his life on the line ? It does not sound as if she is referring to President Bush *smile* ... perhaps some other president ...

Alas ... looks like Lori believes that freedom to complain, in other words, freedom of expression is given to those ladies in the restaurant by the President, by her Husband and by all these 'other' fine men and women in 'there' ... How much more mis-guided can this poor Lori get ? If I recall it correctly, the freedom-of-expression is given by the Constitution rather than by the President. *grin*

Err ... so what would Lori do ? Would she simply get out of the earshot range of the ladies who were exercising their freedom-of-expression or something more sinister ... Lori would 'silence' those ladies ?

Sadly ... Appears as if Lori fails to understand that excercising freedom-of-expression is not same as running down 'her' country. First of all it is not just 'her' country. It is of the ladies who are opposing the policy of the current administration as well (No ?). And America is far too greater than Lori's vision of it I guess .... It does not get run down when someone excrcises his/her freedom-of-expression of opposing the policy of the current administration.
