I just thought I'd find a nice quote on the subject matter. If you read A People's History of the United States (I had to for US History, it's kinda boring), he does quote it. Sorry for the confusion.

I agree, Crimson. Following your government if you believe what they are doing is good for the country isn't unpatriotic. It's only "patriotic" if you disagree with the goverment. And even then, it's a stretch to say it's the "highest" form (Although I think it's up there). So no, you aren't any more (un)patriotic then the rest of us, I would hope.

"Maybe pursuing happiness is the highest form of patriotism?"

I like it. Smile

Yes, it does matter. It's called lying, or willful deception. You know, the kind of things you accuse the President of doing while making his case for the war on Iraq.

Hypocritical? Ding ding...

I'm not the one using the quote everywhere, and the person who does use the quote hasn't even posted here to say "it doesn't matter," if anything. So I don't think anyone is being a hypocrit here. Ding Ding!

I personally do not care who said it. I agree with the message it conveys regardless (maybe if you get rid of "highest").
