billvon 3,120 #28 April 23, 2002 >Whatever the definition, It does not include sitting around and criticizing>everything that the government does. There is 'action' and 'sacrifice' in patriotism. No, it includes exactly that. Someone who spends their lives trying to change the governmentm, to fix something they think is wrong, is being a lot more patriotic than someone who spends their lives watching TV, not voting and not educating themselves on what's going on in the US and the world.>QUIT WHINING! Get off of your butt and do something about it! It is way too >easy to criticize. I agree. You should do, rather than just whine. But keep in mind that some of our greatest leaders (Lincoln, Roosevelt, MLK) used their words to move a nation. Words can be very powerful, and everyone who uses them is not just whining.-bill von Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure why you disagreed and then restated what I said. Criticizing by itself is not productive.QuoteBut keep in mind that some of our greatest leaders (Lincoln, Roosevelt, MLK) used their words to move a nation. Words can be very powerful, and everyone who uses them is not just whining. There is a big difference between criticizing and using words to motivate people. I didn't say that using words was whining. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
