Until the false ideals of 'American Exceptionalism' are dashed (which may be coming sooner than we think), the nationalists, who parade around as patriots, will never let go of their fantasy. They forget that America used to be just another nation, minding our own business and doing just fine.

Very well said...... Hits the nail on the head like a good kick in the nuts............lol

I especially like that "Exceptionalism' " ....>>> Somehow when "we dot it" it is ok. altruistic etc..... & that nationalism masked as patriotism..... Classic......
