Why are Republicans generally more patriotic than Democrats?

But I’m done with reasoned responses to Ditka, this is just another trolling thread like the 4th of July one. I remember a lot of Dems gave very well thought out responses about what their country meant for them and the response was just sort of, “Oh, you are all a bunch of overthinking navel gazers but you still hate America.”

Can you point me to the post(s) where he said that? I’m not disputing that it was said; I’m genuinely curious. HD has started a number of potentially argumentative threads lately where he seemed (at least to me) to be trying to avoid poisoning the well.
