My point is, you've done nothing but whine about the other side whining. You say liberals are hostile to opposing viewpoints, when you've just been hostile about what you think are liberals' viewpoints, which are nothing more than often-repeated stereotypes of liberals. You complain about liberals claiming to be "enlightened' when no one by you and carolina_guy have come close to claiming anything like they know "the truth." Your arguments have all been recycled from talking points.
I cant make a judgement on whether someone is a loser, if I haven't met them. Still curious to know what your criteria is.
Soldiers that rape Japanese girls = losers.
Soldiers that tortured prisoners (Abu Ghraib, anyone?) = losers.
Male soldiers that sexually harrass and rape female soldiers = losers.
Officers who let Walter Reed Medical Center go to pot = losers.
Officers who discharge soldiers for PTSD but claim other reasons = losers.
Never forget, that it was "dissent" that created the country in the first place!
Oh Emissary, the dissent of the 18th century sought to free us from tyranny. The dissent of the 20th/21st century seeks to place back under that rule. Quite a difference there buddy.

Talking points. lol.
There has been no attempt to find middle ground because there is no middle ground.

Sure it did, but did you even read my post? Obviously you are missing the point. TRUE, GENUINE dissent is different than pure hatred and childish whining. An objective, genuine, intellectual idea that opposes the norm can be great for this country, and can lead to a merge of ideals and views, usually with a viable outcome. The crowd that screams at formal political events, spews hatred about our troops, makes juvenile rants about policies, and judges people of opposing views is nowhere near true dissent.
