Giuliani's empty and hypocritical accusation that Obama doesn't "love" America...
....Or Slate's response that:
Barack Obama believes that the United States is an exceptional, great, splendiferous nation—the world's most powerful force for good.Slate then goes on and regurgitates 13 different speeches where Emperor Barack says so.
What a charade the two sides of the same coin have going.
As for me, I'm with Ron Paul who says:
"I accept the definition of patriotism as that effort to resist oppressive state power.
The true patriot is motivated by a sense of responsibility and out of self-interest for himself, his family, and the future of his country to resist government abuse of power. He rejects the notion that patriotism means obedience to the state."

It would be better if everyone in the government were as well-schooled in history and economics as Dr. Ron Paul is, but that would preclude their becoming rich and powerful tyrants.
