The freedom to express your opinion as in your constant attacks that you base on theory and conjecture.Try that one in say Iran or maybe prewar Iraq,I dont think you would enjoy the results.
The freedom to practice the religion of your choice,not one that is chosen for you.
These are a couple of the freedoms that that our Armed Forces fight for.I was in the military,so were two of my brothers and my father.I thank God for them and all others who have stood in harms way in uniform service of this country.
The one thing alot of people like hevusa dont understand is that love of country is a beacon for those who join the military.AIt may sound trite but there is no greater sacrafice than giving up your life defending your family or your country.People like hevusa dont understand that and will probably make fun of this post but I dont really care.

If you would care to learn the true basis under which our country was founded you would understand how I feel. People that join the military with a sense of honor in this country are being fooled and it makes me angry.
