Re: patriotism -- Rikki
Actually, it's a moral compass that tells us if we are wrong or right. This country has done more right than wrong. If you have a better system, I am listening.
Former USAF and DAMN proud of it.

This country has done more right than wrongSo you admit that overthrowing the Chilean government was wrong. Good. All I'm asking is that people be willing to recognize that our government is occasionally wrong. After all, eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

Yeah, but Allende was a socialist! He would have raised taxes! We had no choice but to have him killed and subject the Chilean population to 2 decades of terror. They now have the most stable economy in South America. I'm sure they're grateful to us.

And to think, all this time I thought Ma Bell had him knocked off because he wanted to nationalize the phone company. You know those phone cops play hardball.
