I don't see you, Shantel, or anyone else getting banned for stating their opinion about this. Indeed, you and I are both old enough to remember these words ...
In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than in mine, will rest the final success or failure of our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe.
Now the trumpet summons us again - not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need; not as a call to battle, though embattled we are - but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation" - a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself....
And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.
I imagine John Kennedy is rolling in his grave today, at the antics of his successor. Our duty, as good citizens, is to make our feelings known.
