-Quote suggests that a "true patriot" must embrace everything ever done by America, or become un-American. I don't like welfare programs in the US. Is my opinion un-American?

-One of the duties of any American citizen is to make their country better. The best way to do that is through criticism where criticism is due. The Founding Fathers of America realized this(1st amendment free speech). Idiots often do not. There would be no USA if Founding Fathers did not criticize or disagree with Great Britain.

-assumes that there are only two options available: complete silence/agreement when it comes to the US or moving out of the US to some foreign country. What a nice way to look at life...

Obama believes that if you hate America, you should take over the place and fundamentally change it into the socialist paradise you've always wanted.

That's not only patriotic, but, also shows ambition! Right?

Could it be about one's ability to just be content?

They type of people who can only see "it would be better if we....." versus a pass/fail deterministic approach.

GF weighs 125, she'd be better at 117
gf has size c, would better with D
gf is a brunette, and I think I like blondes better
gf likes ground beef spaghetti, I like it when there's meatballs

Can you be happy with a 125 lb brunette with nice breasts who cooks.....or do you say hurtful things?

internet message boards are full of cretins who are ignored and avoided in real life

guess it's a good thing in some ways - gives them an outlet

This slogan was exposed, disected, and your question answered in poignant fashion in the movie "Born on the 4th of July".

You should watch it.







or just continue reading below.











SPOILER ALERT.












Yea, only idiots say that.
