      I'm patriotic towards Apolyton, which is why I distrust Ming.

            Oh, and Tass, it's indeed a better definition. It is possible to be patriot while loathing your government structure. I'm sure many Iraqis can prove it.

                Sava :
                I'm sure most Americans, even on this forum, believe in their democracy despite loathing their current leaders. I'm not sure many would cheer if an invading army came to put a "regime change"

                  Well, in some warped scenario:

                  If Bush were to proclaim himself president for life, I would welcome outside help to rid our country of his filth if we were unable to do it by ourselves. But I wouldn't want a massive invasion.
                  To us, it is the BEAST.

                      I'm not a patriot. I have no feeling of allegiance to my country.

                      What I have is an admiration for the history that has shaped how we live now, and the institutions that allow me to enjoy the standard of living I enjoy today. I don't care what country that may be.

                        I am not a "Patriot", as a flag waver etc. But I feel a part of this place, and I am grateful for all the things it has done for me.

                          Big Crunch and Che. WTF are you doing here?
                          Bye. Adios.

                          Neither of you are patriots. At best, you might be anarchists.

                          Sorry. Your comments are not welcome here.

                          NEXT?

                            Sorry, I'm more of a patriot than you'll ever be.

                              I think Che appreciates and stands for freedom and democracy more than many self-proclaimed "patriots".
