    To not be a patriot is to be an idiot. A lot of people have different "ideas" of what a patriot is. However the agreed definition is....

    Dictionary.com : "a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion."

    If you don't love, support and are willing to defend your country..... You should get out and find a new one. Simply, we don't need you and if you don't want to be here then GTFO.

    If you take advantage of your country during good times, but don't fight when it's necessary then I also say GTFO moocher.

    Does "loving" your country mean you can't "criticize" the actions of the government...especially when they're wrong?

    If I'm abducted by someone, and put in the back seat of the car...of course I don't want to be "abducted", but if my abductor is driving recklessly...I have a stake in speaking out against it...for his sake and mine.

    Some of the GREATEST patriots of this nation were those who went against the "status quo", and condemned the government when its actions were unethical.

    "Patriotism" is being used, these days, to bully people into submission to the status quo set up by those who want nothing but more and more power, with less and less accountability.

    A True Patriot seeks what is best for the country and every single citizen. A FALSE patriot is one who seeks his own personal or political agenda, and uses "patriotism" to get everybody else to go along with it.

    If you LOVE your country, don't be afraid to speak out against it when it is in error.

    So you feel if people do not conform to being a patriot they should find a new home?

    No no no, Unequivocal Support of a single president and his agenda is retarded.

    Not all Patriotism is bad, But I agree that it is sometimes abused to bully.

    Yes.

    If you are not willing to defend, support, contribute how can you expect to live their? Seriously? People fight to live in certain parts of the world. It is an expectation all citizens of the world must take up.

    If your country was under attack and you COULD, but DIDN'T take up arms. Think about it. Benefit without Risk is for moochers.

    Its not about "doing what bush says". It's about "taking proper action when your nation needs guidance". That's Patriotism.

    Patriots will take action for what they think is best. That's why everyone should be one. The week should be cast out.
