Liberals unpatriotic?

[Platypus]

Believe it or not, but their are other ways to be patriotic then fltin the flag and pledging allegiance to it.

Come to Australia. On Australia Day.

You on't see a flag. Why? Because we don't need them to feel patriotic, and neither do the liberals of SanFran.

Get off your high horse and celebrate your nation's most important day, just asthe SanFran liberals were-with joy and patriotism-in a real and deep way, not an overt and audacious way.

BTW, in the last sentence of the third paragraph, you say:

"You realy must be ignorant or lazy not to put out your american flag."

This presumes two falsities:

1) That everyone hs an american flag
2) That people who don't put out their flag are ignorant, lazy or, as you said earlier, unpatriotic.

Before you start flaming, consider your arguments a bit more carefully.

I would say that MOST liberals are NOT unpatriotic. However, there is absolutely no question that FAR MORE liberals are unpatriotic than conservatives or moderates. Also, liberals are far more likely to be disdainful of the very concept of patriotism.

Patriotism, when overt and audacious, can become ugly.

Not always, but sometimes. Maybe tyou remember that thread about the aussie woman in Florida who went to put out an aussie flag because all the neighbours had american flags and they wouldn't let her?

Liberals may be more likely to be unpatriotic, but conservatives are more likely to be jingoistic and audacious in patriotsm. Not every conservative, but more then the liberals.

The Japanese were not less evil. the were just a one-race state.

What they did when the came across other races was just as evil as the Germans.
