that wasn't simple? I can at least define mine, can you? or do you avoid the discussion for fear of exposing yourself? just asking politely here.
you don't accuse someone of not wanting to expose themselves and then go "hey i'm just being polite" - that aside -
there simply isn't 1 definition and that's pretty much how it's always been. you can throw some apple pie and chevrolets at me all you want and say SEE I AM and i'll go great, but that definition you sure are.
but we're not limited to 1 mindset or way of doing things, by design. to say "you do it this way or you are NOT xyz" - well thats just as ignorant as when the left chooses to define limited ways of being in "the right" - each oddly enough the ways they support.
this country isn't for 1 mindset. that you seem to think it is, well that does explain why others are NOT agreeing with you. unfortunately it's usually done inside their own "Patriotic Silo".
