Are you Patriotic?

I am patriotic for the ideas the country was founded on. And I am a patriot. But if you are using "country" to mean "government" than no.
I'd have to agree with storm here.
Freedom and Justice for All = Win
American Government = Beyond Fail
 
To Romania! my parents country!
To USA!, hmm so-so.
They both have the same governemt but the US kinda controls us more ( like photo en-force light camra... 100$ per ticket!)
 
I am patriotic by insulting my country and saying it fails. Mostly because I'm a pessimist, though perhaps it will compel people to make my country un-fail.
 
Nope. My only allegiance is to the earth. Patriotism to anything but the unsoiled, green earth is stupid. Country, government, "ideals upon which a country was founded", etc... all are very human concepts and thus fallible. The earth itself is infallible.

Well put.

My only true allegiance is to myself, anyway. I hold most people in contempt and use them only to further myself.

I'm a 4th of July baby. I was born patriotic. I may not support everything our nation's leaders may do, but I am proud to be where I am at.
Hey that's exactly like me! I was supposed to be born on the 4th of July too, but I couldn't wait and was born a little early on the 12th of June. (WHICH IS NEXT WEEK BTW!) :D

@Thread: Heck yeah. *Points to Avatar* But I'm not entirely too happy with our government at the moment, but I'm patriotic to my country.
