On being patriotic and not feeling used afterwards

Many thanks for this Mark Morford piece:

It is still possible to feel warmly patriotic in personal and important ways and yet believe the military and the generals and the war machine do not have your best interests at heart and really couldn’t care less what those interests are anyway but thank you for sharing now please sit down and do as we tell you and by the way, thanks for all the flags and the money.

To paraphrase the bumper sticker: “America’s allright; it’s Ashcroft I’m worried about.”
