A quick scan of FR shows it to be increasingly populated by dullards who cannot abide criticism in any form, and who cheer while their party of choice runs this once great republic into the ground.

Waving the flag ain't all there is to patriotism.

And find themselves so lacking in logical arguments they resort to calling others lunatics.

A particularly apt description of FR libertarians and buchananites....

Your bias is showing, and you seem somehow to have missed the last 70+ years of American history.

Waving the flag ain't all there is to patriotism.

Quite true. Of course, we could just sit around bitching and moaning like you do, but it's rather sedentary. At least with flag waving you can work on your pecs.

Your imaginary "great republic" has never been greater. Nostalgic fantasies don't qualify as political or historic realities.

Harkening back to a "Golden Age" which never existed doesn't help understand anything.
