Seriously, the idea that Liberals aren't patriotic is a canard. I'm fiercely patriotic about our constitution and our bill of rights and I'll go toe to toe with anyone about what they mean. One of the reasons I'm so vehemently against this administration is I seriously believe it's fundamentally dangerous to much of what I think makes America a great, historically important country. Throughout my life I have strongly disliked Republicans from Nixon to Bush Sr. but I never thought they were truly dangerous to America in the long term and honestly never imagined I could feel that way. It's my very patriotic opinion that W and company are a very different animal than we have seen in power during my life.
