How about apologizing for being a knee jerk "patriot" then? I found myself in more arguments with people in other countries when I traveled overseas because of Americans with attitudes like yours. It got old.

Ever take a look at the Declaration of Independence? You know, that "pansy" document that states "We hold these truths to be self evident: That all men are created equal...? It doesn't say "except for Mexicans" or "except for Iraqui's" or "except for Irish." It say ALL men. A true patriot honors the words of that document. Its a bit like the so-called Christian who indulges in shady business deals and cheats on his wife, but goes to Church every Sunday. How much respect does such an individual deserve? Very little in my book. Yelof took the words out of my mouth - "find another planet"!
