Has Texas had more patriots than any other state in the union? Here's the short list:
Stephen F. Austin
Jom Bowie
Davy Crokett
James Fannin
Sam Houston
William B. Travis
Audie Murphy
Chester Nimitz
Dwight Eisenhower
Howard Hughes
George Bush
Kay Bailey Hutchison
Rick Perry
George W. Bush
B) In a different interpretation... Massachussetts clearly has more Patriots. And they're three-time Superbowl champs.
C) Yeah, that guy.. Dubya... Not a patriot. War Criminal is closer.

b) Ahem, the Cowboys have only won five Super Bowls.
c) Say what you will, but there hasn't been another terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11.

Originally posted by SickboyDoes seceding make anyone any less of a patriot? The Civil War was fought because the seceding states wanted the government to abide by the Constitution. That to me IS patriotism.

Why do people think that winning the Superbowl makes them more of a patriot?
I agree with you about Bush.

Originally posted by pritybettaWell, first, that wasn't really Texas's reason for wanting to secede was it? They pretty much just wanted to be their own country. But I admit, my comment was meant to be a bit of snark.

2). That was a joke. Massachusetts has the most Patriots (as in The New England Patriots football team).

Al-Q is laughing their heads off because Bush is so dumb he has spent years fighting the people who werent even responsible. You go to them so they can kill you from the background and save them time and money.

Escalated the war in Vietnam and created the Great Society programs which have done far more harm to the people they were intended to help and cost the taxpayers trillions of dollars.
Doesn't anyone get patriarchal oligarchy or is 1984 just a date in the past??
