speech with GWB himself merely feet away from Stephen, back in the good old days of us Americans "better watch what we say" Support our troops, baby fascism.

Really, Stephen's raw courage is an inspiration for those of us that cling to the hope that we may someday return to the best ideals and aspirations of our Founding Fathers. As opposed to right now, where the PTB's want to replace our FF's with a former KGB agent.
