Is this the face of Patriotism?

Don't start off screaming, actually read this "comic." Say what you want about the evil Religious Right, about any conservatives screaming any number of stupid things... but this is just wrong.

I don't even know where to start with this. I have never questioned people's patriotism, primarily because I think it's useless and inane, but how does one argue (s)he's patriotic if they have these sentiments?

How does one say he loves a country when all he does is talk about how evil it is, and openly support the people whom his country is fighting? How does he claim to love the country, then imply the world would be better without those who fight under the country's flag?
