No Republican has called the Democrats unpatriotic.

I think many DemocRATS are unpatriotic. But then again, I'm not a Republican.

[Steely Tom]

Liberals want to destroy America in order to save it.

(steely)

[StriperSniper]

Patriotism is normally defined as liking the country in which you live, supporting its values, and respecting its past. If Liberals hold all of these values in contempt and work endlessly to vilify and destroy them, then just how can they even pretend to call themselves patriots?

BUMP!

LIBERAL DEMOCRATS v. CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS

There's a HUGE Difference

Throughout the 20th century, Liberal Democrats were in control of the legislative process in Florida and in Washington, D.C. However, with Republicans now leading the way, we are returning to the policies that made America great. The differences in the way we're governed reflect the core differences between the two parties.

CRIME
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE that the needs of the communities and law-abiding citizens must take priority over those of criminals.
Liberal Democrats have an extremist record of placing the rights of criminals above all, including freeing violent criminals on legal technicalities.

NATIONAL DEFENSE
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE that the only way to live free from foreign aggression is to maintain peace through strength.
Liberal Democrats would utilateraly disarm. They impose their agenda by continually voting to divert defense funds to expand social programs.

EDUCATION
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE that students must be challenged to learn in a school environment that is safe for students and teachers. Parents must be offered more opportunities and options and the massive bureaucracy must be reduced.
Liberal Democrats have imposed discredited social experiments upon our schools, dumbing down the curriculum. Together with left-wing union bosses, they fight attempts to reduce the bloated education bureaucracy.

TAXES
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE that Americans should keep more of what they earn through lower taxes and that tax policy should not suppress incentive by penalizing success.
Liberal Democrats relentlessly use propaganda to promote the failed premise that America can tax its way to prosperity. They wage class warfare against successful Americans through regressive taxes.

SPENDING
REPUBLICANS have long believed that government should not spend more than it takes in and have consistently fought for a balanced budget.
Liberal Democrats have a sad history of spending taxpayers' money to expand government bureaucracy and fighting against a balanced budget.

MEDICARE/SOCIAL SECURITY
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE that the senior's safety net must be preserved for today's beneficiaries and for the millions who will need it tomorrow.
Liberal Democrats shamelessly scare and frighten our seniors, acting as if nothing needs to be done, offering no solutions to a true problem.

GOD
REPUBLICANS BELIEVE, as the founding fathers before us, that God was a major factor in the creation of this nation and that efforts to remove Him from society altogether must be reversed.
Liberal Democrats are aligned with extreme left-wing elements that God should be totally excluded from public utterances.

What's wrong with link?

[bilhosty]

Any body who does not think that liberals are unpatriotic can go to the Democratunderground forums. there you will see American flag graphics on there replies that are upside down. You will see that they are sympathetic with Castro and any other Communist or leftist dictator. You will see that they are anti-american, and have nothing but contempt for American culture.

"Andy Rooney ...stating that no American soldiers really wanted to be in the military or fight a War. They were "forced" into the Army out of financial need."

Pathetic pile of fossilized dinosaur dung.

Good article, but the author needs some help in grammar and a good proofreader.

Liberals have been quite effective over the past few decades at a convincing people that patriotism consists of nothing more than dissent and criticism. They've even been quite effective of appropriating the term "liberal" for themselves. But they aren't liberal, and they aren't patriotic.

I am glad someone else thinks this too.

Liberals are unpatriotic. They are unpatriotic by the very nature of what they believe. What we call "liberalism" in this country is rightly termed "socialism" elsewhere. If one looks at socialist platforms in other countries, they are approximate to liberal platforms here. Liberals, socialists - they define themselves by a lack of loyalty to a nation and more by a supposed loyalty to humanity as a whole. That is why even otherwise "honest" people on the left support the UN and cannot possibly do wrong: after all, it DOES "intend" to help promote peace between mankind, right?

Socialists support socialism, and modern socialism, by its very nature, supports "world" above country. That sounds like a noble purpose at first, until we realize that all we have in life are our family, our friends, our neighbors, and, ultimately, our freedom. The concerns of the socialists ask us to compromise on the importance of these. The scope of government they require to accomplish what they believe is necessary by its very nature violates them.

These people are often actively unpatriotic. The whole reason they claim we are saying that they are is because they know they are and they think we won't publically call them on it. The fact that they actually get away with this scares me. What country can succeed when an active part of it is openly treasonous and wants that country to fail in all of its undertaking? How is it that those who are unpatriotic can corner and intimidate us into silence when it comes to calling them on it? Are we afraid of being labeled "fascists", being called ugly names, and that so-called "moderates" will be pushed away from us? We can back up what we say with facts, they cannot. All they can do is call us names.

We have a lot to do if we are going to save this country. We don't have to outright say that they are unpatriotic, but we certainly should point out instances where they are and, when we are questioned as to whether we think they have a lack of patriotism, we ought to answer in the affirmative. We win this culture war through being vocal and being honest. It is all we can do.

Well, first you have to understand what "patriotism" means, and its context within the confines of the USA. What is America? Look to God first, then look to the founding of our country.

You might say that any non-religious person is automatically unpatriotic. The Fathers clearly brought forth God into our country, and in fact our "freedom" and way of life isn't even possible without Him. In my opinion.

As an atheist, am I unpatriotic, then? Well, I don't consider myself to be. Although I don't believe in God, I do believe that the natural swing of things is in parallel with what the religious believe, therefore our goals for the country are quite the same. I believe in evil, for want of a hell.

To lead an "immoral" life, to seek to destroy the basic structures of our country, like marriage, to discourage us from protecting our citizens, and to encourage the death of the very young, old, and sick (abortion and euthanasia) are all indeed unpatriotic, and I'll stand and fight with and for those who also think so.

God bless America.

"No Republican has called the Democrats unpatriotic."

From my own experience, that is not correct. I am a Republican, and I call Democrats unpatriotic all the time.

It's the truth. Why do we suffer them?

[stainlessbanner]

but at lease they can read.

can they read a lease?

[bray]

I don't think Liberals are unpatriotic, they're braindead Communists!
