Arnold's contribution to the revolution was extrordinary. Possibly no other single individual did so much at that time. He then turned on his people, maybe he could see what was coming.

I guess if Benedict Arnold turned on his own people because he may have seen what was coming - assuming that all that is bad now can be blamed on some mythical Republican boogeyman - why the hell are you still around?

Some people are really stupid - and not at all thankful for all of what we enjoy as Americans.

I am sorry but I feel both parties suck. Bush is just the lesser of the evils. As to sticking around. I will remind you that my forefathers tried to form their own country and were killed as a consequence. As to being stupid, perhaps if people would wake up and look around, they would find that we are broke and that the original mission of our government has been changed to such an extent that the founding fathers likely would not recognize it. As to the love it or leave it theory, I say it is past time say bull to their ridicule and that we need drastic change.

How do you propose to effect that change, Caskey? A revolution against the White House and Congress and the Supreme Court? You know, by force of the few against the majority? Sounds a lot like the Bolsheviks to me.

Others of your ilk have the same lame ideas. When things don't go right for their narrow views at the ballot box, start a revolution.

A dummie named Cary Tennis wriote the same sort of seditionist nonsense in a recent issue of Salon Magazine.

I have a better idea. Get your pathetic ass out of OUR country.

”Arnold's contribution to the revolution was extrordinary. Possibly no other single individual did so much at that time. He then turned on his people…”

George Washington, perhaps? Regardless, just what is Benedict Arnold known for today? He is NOT considered to be one of the founding fathers. He was and remains to be known as a traitor. Arnold was a soldier who at the last minute decided the colonies could not win – much like Murtha. If Arnold was alive today, the Democrats would make him their Senate Minority leader.

In case there is any question, I have little tolerance for those who wore this country’s uniform or served nationally and then advocate against it. As for those who never wore the uniform and advocate against it; I say leave. Immigration is still possible. So, immigrate to Europe where the “progressive” atmosphere is more to your mindset; but stop trying to socialize this country – we don’t want your socialism!

His new image: Benedict Feingold.
