Sorry, but I read the speech, and you are incorrectly insinuating that prefacing or including her supposed love for this country automatically exempts the rest of her asinine diatribe from scrutiny, IMO.
Automatically exempts? No. But I do look at the whole, not a word here and there out of context.
As for asinine and diatribe, I don't know that I can or would want to argue with asinine -- she's clearly not the sharpest knife in the drawer -- but I dunno about diatribe. To me it sounded like "Be good little boys and girls when you go overseas!"
