So while debating conservatives...
have you ever had them bail out on you with the old, "Is there anything you like about this country?"
I just got that response on another board.

Just the fact that many of us see the ugly history and current state and speak out they resort to not wanting to wake up by inferring we "hate America".
I am frustrated so I will simply answer the first question, "Yes" and leave it at that.

GRRRRRRR.........
:grr:

1. Tell them this
That what I like about this country is that we have the right to dissent from the current administration, and you and fellow liberals intend to fight for that right.

3. I would hit them with this...
Liberals: "America is the greatest country in the world. How can we make it even better?"

Conservatives: "America is the greatest country in the world. Come, let's go barbeque and drink beer."

4. Yes I love this country
Not the people who are currently running it. Remember when talking with conservatives use small words and no sudden movements.
