Each of us is only here because somebody somewhere had our backs. Because generations of Americans worked together. &#8216;Out of many we are one.&#8217; Those are values we&#8217;ve got to return to.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I guess that anything we do as a nation the right will dismiss as collectivist.

I guess they have also abandoned the concept of <em>&#8220;E Pluribus Unum&#8221;<\/em> that was a founding principle of our country and still adorns our currency. I guess this is just the state of modern politics that requires the right to disparage anything this President does or says, even if it is unmistakably patriotic.<\/p>\n<p>I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if the next time the President recites the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, the right goes into hysterics because he pledged his allegiance to a piece of cloth rather than the Constitution. That&#8217;s how demented they have become. The twisted treatment the President receives by the numbskulls at Fox Nation is pathetic and ought to embarrass clear thinking conservatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As an indication of just how disingenuous the right can be in the expression of their patriopathic zeal, the Fox Nation web site posted a video of President Obama delivering a speech before soldiers at Fort Stewart in Georgia and characterized his support for the troops as &#8220;collectivist.&#8221; Fox National is very disturbed by a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[183,527],"class_list":["post-6966","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general","tag-barack-obama","tag-fox-nation"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4Ijg-1Om","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":6285,"url":"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=6285","url_meta":{"origin":6966,"position":0},"title":"Fox Nation vs. Reality: Viewers Tuning Out Obama?","author":"Mark NC","date":"1\/26\/2012","format":false,"excerpt":"OK, let's face it.
