Lack of Patriotism in America?

Question

Jesus, where has our patriotism gone? Has anyone else noticed a lack of patriotism in America?

Answer 1

It's there, and it's stronger then ever! But the liberals who control most newspapers and TV stations try like hell to to make us think otherwise.

It's why just about all there major newspapers are going broke(quick) and are continuing to lose paid circulation. Over-the-air networks have news ratings that are a pathetic joke and cable networks like CNN and MSNBC are both far behind FOX .

Answer 2

America is made of many patriotism to day . the lobby system have destroyed American patriotism. Its ok for the Israeli lobby to spy on the USA . Israel became part of American patriotism. Look what Sharon said about the issue:
"Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it." -- Ariel Sharon to Shimon Peres, October 3rd, 2001, as reported on Kol Yisrael.
Its ok for an American Jews to serve in the Israeli army but not in the USA army

Answer 3

Patriotism is NOT, and never has been blind following of anything spoken by the government. In the words of Theodore Roosevelt "Patriotism is to stand by the country, not to stand by the president."

Answer 4

Well, what do you consider Patriotic?? I consider bringing home our troops and getting the republicans the hell out of the white house patriotic!!!!

As for Jesus, I've never seen him flying the American flag, so I can't speak for him

Answer 5

Patriotism equals Racism. Think about it. If you believe in one country more strongly than another, than you believe that it's people are better or more entitled than other people.

Free yourself from delusion bro.

"Patriotism ... is a superstition artificially created and maintained through a network of lies and falsehoods; a superstition that robs man of his self-respect and dignity, and increases his arrogance and conceit." Emma Goldman

Answer 6

IWhat do you mean by "patriotism"? If you mean blind acceptance of anything "American", then I want no part of it. If you mean, do I want my country to stand for real peace, real prosperity, real justice--well, I'd like to see it, but i think we lost that battle when we killed off the native Americans, enslaved Africans, and became one of the most violent and corrupt nations ever to say "under God".



edit: I feel sorry for our military--people who think they are fighting for OUR freedom. How did looking for weapons of mass destruction become synonymous with "freedom"--especially since none were ever found??? I believe these young men and women are brainwashed. Not that I wouldn't be very grateful to the Marines for their protection if there was something I really needed protection from,

Answer 7

'My country, right or wrong' is a thing no patriot would ever think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying 'My mother, drunk or sober.'"

Answer 8

My experience is that there is no less patriotism now than there has been in my lifetime.

Answer 9

I would say its something to do with this friend (In my case CERTAINLY)
