Real Patriotism

Perhaps it is idealistic on my part, to think this way, but I do. I believe that people in government are public servants. I really do. When government officials truly mess up and do damage to the country, either they straighten up or they must leave. It actually does take place..............sometimes. "Why is patriotism thought to be blind loyalty to the government and the politicians who run it, rather than loyalty to the principles of liberty and support for the people? Real patriotism is a willingness to challenge the government when it’s wrong." Ron Paul 2012
