What is the far-right definition of a patriotic American?
I was just on another board where a right-winger said that GW Bush's picture would be on the wall of every patriotic American, right by their picture of Jesus. Personally, I find this scary and disgusting. For my liberal Christian friends, I'm sure that they feel disgust that right wingers seem to equate the Shrub with Jesus. As a non-Christian, I get sick because I see this as what at least one element of the right wants-a theocracy, not a democracy.

2. KRISHTENS
Krishtens view of patriotism is to bomb everyone else out of existence, who dont believe in their mangled views.

3. I hope this demonstrates why I distrust some of the believers
they equate reality with the divine and expect me not to fear their ignornace

4. Here it is, the kamika dictionary definition.
Edited on Mon Dec-08-03 07:35 PM by Kamika
(Disclaimer I'm christian and not white)

The far right patriot

A white or possibly latin, or asian(that don't look too asian preferably a mix) American that is a christian (or a jew that REALLY REALLY dislikes arabs and for best result he's in "jews for Jesus" and doesn't look hebrew)

The person in question must be Extremely angry about Clintons blow job. He is middle class and not in a union since unions corrupt everything they touch.

He is straight and believes that the right to own a gun is solely the most important political question, tightly followed by the tax question.

He has not gone to college since intellectuals are evil.

He does NOT like muslims or ppl from that area, and believes the world problems would be solved if we just nuked "them".

8. My imitation of someone who would fit the RW definition of "patriotic":
"My country, right or wrong" is a stupid statement because, goddamnit, America is ALWAYS right. And we're better than all those other countries. Because we can kick their asses. And should, too. We need to go invade France next. Teach those obnoxious Frog bastards a lesson. They can't disresepct our President like that. By God, we have the finest way of life in the world, right here in this country. And we SHOULD be ready to go to war to preserve it. And if those other puny little countries don't like it, tough. Let's see 'em stop us. Europeans are nothing but a bunch of godless atheistic socialist scum anyway.


You probably get the idea.
