Whoever produced that is a little too good in my opinion. It gave me goosebumps. I actually felt patriotic while I watched it...really! And if you have read any of my posts it is obvious that I don't like what this country has become. If only we followed the Constitution instead of the Manifesto...

Great video. The left will never understand it, It's all about loyality, decency, love of country and their fellow man, community and grit. Not exactly something in their world.

I agree. They can't understand it and now they fear it. (Watch the Leftist/Marxist insults in here fly...)

How many tours have you done? Infering that your political views somehow make you more "patriotic" disgusts this old vet

In America, you don't have to have a combat tour to be patriotic. Are you saying cops, firemen, nurses, teachers, cleaning ladies, politicians, mothers, fathers, etc can not be called patriots because they do not have a combat tour?

I'm proud of my combat tour, but I know, you don't need one to stand up and love America. (I guess I'm not that old.)

Other than the last part about the Tea party, I really am confused on why the rest of this video is supposed to support the tea party movement. This country is a great country, it has its faults, but it has always endured through all its hard times because of the determination of its people. Its not like becoming more socialist is somehow making us weak? One of the most socialist presidents in history led us through WW2 and the great depression. The president who signed the federal reserve into existence, led us through WW1. And in all reality, the big government party led us through the civil war.

I am very proud to be an American, but I am not always proud of America right now. This country was founded on the principles of freedom, justice, and equality. The tea party movement wants to focus on freedom, but they forget about justice and equality. The problem is, to ensure equality, you'll undoubtedly lose some freedom. Anti-discrimination laws, affirmative action, womens suffrage, repealing Jim crow laws, hate crime laws, etc. All of these took away individual freedoms for the sake of a better country, you take for granted how far this country has come. And if you believe the democrats aren't "real" americans, you need to stop drinking fox's koolaid. The democrats and the liberals could also be called under another name "progressives", and progressives are the ones who push change. If it wasn't for the progressives, things like social security would not exist, medicare would not exist, slavery would still exist, women and blacks would not have the right to vote, etc. Do you know what conservative means? Definition : Favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change.

In my opinion the progressives are what made this country great, the conservatives would have us living in the dark ages forever. In fact extreme religious conservatism caused the last dark age.
