You can make the case that the single most important difference between Republicans and Democrats/conservatives and liberals is that Republicans are extremely proud of America, period, while Democrats are somewhat proud when they’re in power and not very proud when they’re not.Like most conservatives, I harbor a barely concealed wish those who find our country objectionable would go pursue their fortunes somewhere they'd like better. They'd be happier and so would we.
I know, I know ... it'll never happen. Much of liberals' perverse joy in life is intentionally being a pain in our collective backsides. Denigrating our country while enjoying its blessings.
Later ... rereading the above, that last paragraph reminds me of a woman from NYC the DrsC met on a cruise ship. She proudly viewed any day she hadn't pissed off someone as a wasted day. She was a face-to-face troll, as well as a hostile leftist, with essentially zero redeeming qualities.
