Gotta love it, though.

Disagree. No one has to love anything if they choose not to. You can be loyal and devoted to your country without loving it or having a huge swelling pride in it. I have met lots of people in other countries who feel exactly like that about their countries. Their cultures don't mandate national cheerleading like ours does.

I am a bit surprised to hear this from a libertarian. I have to obey and conform to the rules of the country and society I live in. But I will decide what I like, love, adore, respect, etc. for myself, thank you very much.
