MSNBC - Defining Love of Country

MSNBC - Defining Love of Country: "July 19 - September 11 either made me love this country or it made me realize how much I already did. I think it's the latter. Seeing 'Fahrenheit 9/11' made me think deeply about love of country how it molds us, drives and emboldens us and how it can sometimes make us so angry we want to shout out to the world: 'No, this is wrong.' Many things have been said about the movie, and of course about its director, Michael Moore. But I don't think I've heard anyone comment on Moore's love for America. It seemed evident to me that the film was born from that love.

To anyone who would respond that, no, the film was motivated by rage at the Bush administration, might I point out that when you feel betrayed, when you believe that something or someone you love has been wounded and cheated and lied to, the fury that floods the heart is unstoppable."
