Do give up. I've had it with immigrants to the US from USSR who think that support for civil liberties (ours, yours, or a genric Nicaraguan's) is tantamount to being a dupe of the Communists. Yes, you had it bad in the USSR--worse than I can probably imagine--but while you're basking in how good it is here (and it sure as hell is), think about how little it takes for civilized people to become savages, and when they do who they will most certainly come for.
