I love my country, but I don't feel good about the path we have gone down the last eight years. The leadership sacrificed our reputation and credibility abroad all the while trying to eliminate as many liberties as possible in the name of their own paranoid megalomania.

I love my Country! And I am proud of my Country too.
We have our good things and our bad things, but what country doesn't.
As much as I would like to place all the blame and responsibilities of the bad things on the Leadership chosen for this country the past 16 years or so.
I can't because the key word is Chosen...
It really all boils down to the people that live here and the choices they make!
Which is an awesome freedom in itself. -

Hmm let's see..
Binge drinking, teen pregnancies, knife crime, ASBO's, hoodies.. what's not to like?
Honestly, I quite like it, though I wouldn't be very patriotic about it, it's still my home. -
Yes I love it. I love it for all the good and the bad. The sunset and the slums. The lying politicians and the smiling children. The devastating storms and the drop-dead gorgeous women. I love it with all my heart and I love it from the moment I was born until the day I die. The Philippines is the greatest place on earth, poverty and all.

My country, California, is home to me like no other could be. I tried other states. To me they are all foreign countries. I stayed in places on other continents. But they aren't home. I love the winds that blow here and the mountains that guard the deserts and feed the valleys. I love the friends I have made up and down this coast. This is my country. I will die here.

Well, I used to hate my country but now things are looking better with our one party state quickly crumbling. We should have a better power distribution after the coming elections which means a more effective nanny state for the dismally poor.
Other than hating all politicians, I love my country. We have the best and the worst people in the world living in one of the most beautiful natural surroundings somehow getting along. -

"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." George Bernard Shaw
Having quoted that... I have mixed feelings about my country. I want it to do well, and I want to be proud of it, often I am. There are parts of it that I love, and then there are things I want no part of ever again. Hard to describe. It's a lot like my mother, who is like an embodiment of everything Finnish. I have a love-hate relationship with her too.
