Patriotism

What does it mean to be a patriotic American?

This is a question that has been in our hearts and minds during our endurance of 9-11 and the many challenges that we have faced as a nation in our response to our tragedy. I ask you this—why have the lives of our beloved lost become a political punching bag for many in the bathos feed media that props up our 21st century “catapulting the propaganda” agenda.

Can we have no sorrow without the dour faces of Republican pundits belittling every decision of the current administration? They, and the codependent media have become like fIies on…well you know. This is a disgrace. This is demeaning to our beloved. This is degrading what it means to be American. This is unpatriotic.

We get it. You thirst for power. But you HAD that power and what did you do with it? You fleeced our country. You created false bubbles in the market. You encouraged Wall Street to bet AGAINST American success. You enabled deceit. You were deceit. But our forefathers had the sense to protect us from you and your ilk. It is America. It is the vote, and we spoke back to you and took you out of power. But do you listen, withdraw and reflect as most would who created an internal implosion? No you are choosing to menace and that is unpatriotic.

What does it mean to be a patriotic American? It means you listen, not foment menacing violence.
