re: #184 ozbloke

If you look back upthread, when I was asked about patriotism I spoke in terms of the world, not the USA.

#67 Will be what you are looking for.

Any criticism anyone feels I made of the USA’s patriotism didn’t happen.

You’re right of course. Sorry I unloaded on you because of a pet peeve of mine. I think American patriotism is singled out though, and similar expressions elsewhere are given a pass. Jingoism; perverse, mindless patriotism; exists everywhere and it is primary driving force in global conflict.
Part of my frustration is with idiots like the pair who constitute the subject of this thread. Both will shout their patriotism and devotion to the Constitution from the rooftops, while they are in fact border-line seditionists appealing to morons.
