That is American. We must have it. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;But it's time that the Tories or Loyaists--today's liberals, leftists and the Democrat Party leadership--give it up and either become Americans or decide their grass is greener on other soils.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;But, then, part of America's history and our heritage is that group calling themselves Americans who will always hate our country, while basking in the very freedoms it gives them.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;We must never--NEVER--allow their voice or views to predominate.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510152434948489391/526355211358928223/comments/default/8784060911373646250'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510152434948489391/526355211358928223/comments/default/8784060911373646250'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.freedomslighthouse.com/2008/07/america-greatest-nation-on-earth.html?showComment=1215191879409#c8784060911373646250' title=''/><author><name>CKAinRedStateUSA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11051384804727827611</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.freedomslighthouse.com/2008/07/america-greatest-nation-on-earth.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4510152434948489391.post-526355211358928223' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4510152434948489391/posts/default/526355211358928223' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
