This is a Conservative Website. Not a Republican Party Website. Therein lies your explanation. Deal with it. ...... AmericanInTokyo
If that is the case, then maybe you should change your screen name to "Conservative in Tokyo" and form common cause with others who call themselves "religious conservatives" in Islamist Iran and al Qaeda, "Stalinist conservatives" in Russia, "Maoist conservatives" in Red China and with Yuko Tojo in Japan, all of whom have a hatred for America fueled by their own version of what they call "conservative".
I always thought that Free Republic was always, above all, a PATRIOTIC AMERICAN forum.
AMERICAN patriots do not cheer to have America lose a war.
Traitorous Copperheads, "useful idiots" and "misguided terrorist supporters" do.

What a vapid and scurrilous statement. Such a remark can only be the result of years of practiced ignorance, or such a level of rampant stupidity as to be beyond all hope.
To compare American Conservatism in such company as these is a vile and misshapen slander. There are NONE more sympathetic to the cause of America than American Conservatives. There are NONE who serve her as readily, and NONE who support her more in a time of war.
But that will always be trumped by defense at home of a necessity- Lest there be no America for our boys to return to. To continue to lend support to this administration, and it's anointed heir, is to cripple our sovereignty and to send us most perilously down the road to socialism by the self same devices and affiliations which were erected to defend against it. Those who would aid this treasonous lot solely for the cause of war are the "useful idiots" to whom you refer, every bit as much as those who would support them in the name of "free trade".
AMERICAN patriots do not cheer to have America lose a war.
No one here is cheering any such lose, and it is a silly and presumptuous idea. Just because the Dems will retreat in the face of the enemy does not mean the war is over, or is lost. It is a terrible price to pay, but pay we must. For our enemy is not vanquished, and will come here to further their means. That day must now come. It is inevitable.
