Patriot — a person who loves, supports, and defends his or her country and its interests with devotion.
Listen, a patriot is someone who puts his society before himself. That’s it.
People that vote in their own interest, like Obama said he expected his supporters to, the ones who chant, “yes we can” those aren’t patriots.
People who voted for Obama because they didn’t take economics and think he will do best for our country, those people probably are patriots.
People who voted for Mc Cain because they hate tall people: not patriots.
Understand?
And yeah, the Nazis were patriots, and damn fine patriots too, Rommel for example. Rommel fought brilliantly against Germany’s enemies. He was close to Hitler, and saw the insanity, saw him sending half of the finest military ever seen into an irrational campaign against Stalin, and may have had something to do with the bomb attempt on Hitler’s life. That’s patriotic. If Rommel were some idiot living in his mother’s basement who simply felt this or that, and tried killing old Adolf, well that little shit wouldn’t have been a patriot.

Abdul Haq was a patriot too, but he fought the Soviet backed communist government of his country. After the Soviets left, and thus the US, he fought the Taliban and died doing it.
Tim McVeigh was not a patriot. He was a selfish seeker of attention, angry with his country for being mean to him – boohoo.
Obama’s neighbor, that one who’s wife blew up those police: not patriots. They were upset with their government so they tried making a point by killing government and police (patriots). That’s butt-hurt-ism, like the German boy living in his mom’s basement.
Protesting: patriotic.
Sit-ins that shut down buildings: unpatriotic.
Is this clear enough? It’s like the difference between a freedom fighter and a terrorist. Rub the Liberal of your windshield if this seems smudgy. It’s a black and white issue.
I don’t want any more, “Boo hoo people called me a patriot because I didn’t think we could clean Sadam’s clock and democratize Iraq.”
