I love how conservatives throw around nebulous terms like evil and patriotism.
Edited on Mon Jun-28-10 04:49 PM by LLStarks
Our greatest enemy is the people in this country that mistakenly believe that their actions have no consequences. Those that know their actions produce civil decay are actually very few and far between, and those people are evil. Now evil is patriot’s greatest enemy because as the patriot is dictated at their core by truth those that are evil seek to corrupt this core value, they want truth replaced with a lie.

A real patriot would sacrifice something of great value for his or her country, for example the men and women in our armed forces sacrifice their own lives. Some troops are unwilling and feel ashamed because they don't believe in this country, but those people are much rarer than people think, the large majority of people in the armed services are patriots.

When our president attempts to push for the mediocre and wants our country to be no greater than any other country, then apologizes for something that people "think" we have done. If our president was successful in persuading the masses and creating a country no different than any other country, then where should the patriot go? Would you die for France? Would you die for Germany? Would you die for Mexico?

American patriots exist because America is great, and instead of taking our greatness and shadowing the world in darkness, we take our greatness and like the statue of liberty in sullen harbor of the lost to fill the land with a bright light so that the lost can be found. It reminds us that freedom is never free, and there is some place on this earth that will harbor the weak and protect the voiceless. America is that bright city on the hill, and this is what we share with the world, we show the world how to be great. This is worth preserving and worth dying for, and a real American Patriot knows it.

If the lights get turned off in America would you as a patriot lay down your life for the mediocre? You see what makes America great, and what people around the world are often blind to be that it is not great people that make America great, but rather ordinary people who are a part of a great country. As a patriot your existence runs parallel to the greatness of this country. When this country ceases to be that shinning city, you as the patriot stop being proud of your country, you stop believing in something greater then you are, and your life becomes more valuable than the place you call home, where you family calls home, where you neighbors, friend’s family, co-workers call home.

As a patriot your greatest enemy is America not because America is great but because America has evil within seeking to undo what was paid for and secured in blood so many years ago. You as a patriot are the guardian, the centurion and protector of this country; you are in charge of its defenses, not our military. The patriot, you, must not fail. Is our president evil? I believe so, because he sees a country w/o you, the patriot, because he is embarrassed of the shining city on the hill and seeks to dull its hue. These acts are very counter to the goals of an American patriot. Our president, however, is our leader and is our commander in chief. How could one person out of such a small minority, on the wrong side, also be in charge of our countries course of action? Simple, this is for the reason that our masses where persuaded by evil, and as a patriot we must educate, inform, inspire and go to war with evil, because if we don’t, no one else will.

Right now inside this country there is corruptive taint spreading across the land like the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, and like that spill we are losing people exponentially to the other side. The truth is that evil tells the masses that we must never talk about politics or religion, that these subjects are offensive. We must not talk about honor and duty, because that is insensitive to other people’s cultures. We must not attempt to be a shining light in the darkness, because that is politically incorrect in a perspective of alternative realities, in which all sides of a coin are of equal value. Evil corrupts and seeks to destroy, truth strengthens bonds and preserves hope, so when faced with a vast army, our greatest enemy is always found within. If we fail to act we will be in a land that we are truly ashamed of, as a patriot you must not allow this to happen.

Thank you


America is no better than any other country. Get over it. There's no need to blindly wave the flag and cover our eyes and ears when both peacetime and wartime injustices are carried out.

5. Oh, those terms CAN have concrete meanings.
But conservatives use them nebulously, to mean whatever they want. And if they WERE to give them concrete meanings, they would be disgusting, twisted concrete.
