One huge difference: WE ARE NOT HEAD STOMPERS! You want to witness the seeds of fascism?
They were hard at work Monday night at the Conway-Paul debate. The sad thing is, those goons don't even know it. They think they're being patriotic.
Yes, WE ARE BETTER THAN THAT!
I would have been in that crowd had I not been out canvassing. I know people who witnessed it.
But there is a message in all this thuggery: for all those folks who were starting to "lean" to the right because of there frustration with what's going on, you'd be wise to start looking back in the other direction. Those thugs are not an aberration. They are the logical conclusion of the rightward drift going on in this country.
Do what you can in the next few days to get to the undecideds and ask for their vote. Then GOTV weekend, Monday and Tuesday!

2. Had a lot of American "patriots" cheering on the Iraq and Afghan invasions as I recall
Like they were watching a football game or something.

They thought they were being smart. As it turned out they were being pretty stupid.
