Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
Only hicks support patriotism. And only people that support that view find it funny. Let me analyze this with a simple example. Me and my family.
I am patriotic. I love the United States. I have lived in many other countries in Europe for various periods of time. I like the United States better flaws and all.
My Grandfather on my dads side faught in World War 2. My Grandfather on my moms side faught in the Korean War. My father faught in Vietnam. My older brother was in Somalia, GF1, and Serbia as a US Ranger. One of my best friends is in the Air Force, another is in the Marines. My family and friends as well as myself find that site funny. I would not consider us slack jawed yokels, nor would I say that any of us consider people who display patriotism to be such.
Through hard physical evidence I would have to say that your statement is simply false.
