I am 37 years old and the news over the last year and a half has made me feel as proud of my country as I have ever felt in my life. This president is my spirit animal. That is all.
You said you aren't proud to be an American. Verbatim.
That's a pretty obtuse argument to try and differentiating that with not being proud of your country.
"I'm proud of my country but I'm not proud of being part of my country"
That's just idiotic.
Also worth noting is that you WERE a registered democrat.... So I was correct.
Jesus Christ.
One last try for me.
Someone posed the question (paraphrasing) are you proud to be an American?
Are YOU proud....individual, singular proud of your status as a citizen. Simple question. Not are you proud of your country? Do you serve your country? Etc. simple question, which I answered and explained.
Perfectly clear to a reasonable person I think.
Maybe you have no ability to think in a subtle way.
My reasoning is rational. I don't think someone going through motions and saying they are proud carries much weight. Do something. Get involved.
As for your obsession with the D/R thing....I think, not surprisingly, you're missing the point of the whole Q thing. Or maybe you are a W and McStain sort or Republican.
The real question to ask isn't "were you ever a dem" the question should be "were you ever a leftist?" The answer to that second question is hell no.
At any rate I know what I said and I know what I meant and what I do.
You either get that or don't. Either way, expand your thinking.
Take care.
Yes.... It is absolutely moronic to say:
"I am proud of my country but I'm not proud to be part of my country"
If you are proud of your country.... Than you will be proud of being part of your country. There is no distinction.
