I agree. I have had many people throw that at me, simply because I am a liberal and I have the audacity to suggest things like, we, as a nation, need to look at where WE are responsible for some of things that happen to us, like with our foreign policy.

I can't tell you how many times certain conservatives on another forum have offered to buy me a plane ticket to another country, simply because I express displeasure with my government. IMO, they are the ones acting unAmerican, because there is nothing MORE American than speaking out against the government when you believe the people in office are wrong.
