<I think Jacob is wrong to impugn the patriotism of others>

Sorry if I seemed to be doing that, that was not my intent. The think the NeoCons, and the Hawks in general, are all sincere patriots and want the best for their country.

But I consider myself, also, to be a patriot. And I think the anti-war position is grounded in the values the Republic was founded on.

So, I'm not saying the prowar position in unpatriotic. I'm saying the antiwar position (in the U.S. at least) is patriotic also. And I am not going to concede this ground (patriotism) to the Hawks, who want to wrap themselves in the flag. It's my flag too, and you can't hog it for yourself. You'll have to share.
