Oh my Dear One, there are so many views of what it is to be "patriotic". Mine might well differ from yours but I also believe that it is your right to disagree with me. Do I love America. Definitely. I was born here in Wisconsin, I've lived and loved here and I plan on dying here (hopefully many years from now) This is my Home. Do I agree with the Government? Absolutely not. I think that we've gotten way in over our heads over something that could have been left alone and where funds could have been spent on something more meaningful (like feeding and clothing our own poor). Do I support our soldiers? Always. They're doing their jobs and protecting me; but that doesn't mean I have to believe in what they're fighting for. Thank the Good God I do live here. I could, in another country, be imprisoned for speaking my mind. Here I have the freedom to speak with and to disagree with you. I love my Home but Patriotism has many many faces. Blessings on you, my child.

Patriotic? do you mean that I have agree to the war campaign that our fearless leader has started with the world at large? If that is what you mean, then ''NO'' If I had enough dough I would leave this warmongering country. But until that time, I am going to use dirty little question askers like yourself and the money that you generate for other things. HAVE A PATRIOTIC DAY!!!!

Define patriotic. For me it means allowing people the freedom to live their lives without statements like that being shoved in their faces.
Freedom to disagree is part of it. If you want everyone to think and behave like you, then you miss the entire point of the US.

It cost money to move and why should they leave when the government they hate so much gives them so much. They are actually paid to stay at home and drink and do drugs which gives them enough time to go out and committ crimes in order to pay for their habits once the federal money runs out. Isn't it great. I am not complaining because their actions keep me employed :)

GOD BLESS THE USA
