Don't worry, I know you're not frustrated with me. I certainly don't believe that a liberal can't be patriotic- I consider myself a patriotic liberal- but the stereotype that sprang to mind upon hearing Patriot as a name was the daughter of a couple of beer-swilling, flag-waving, NIMBY-spouting Bush voters. It's the obnoxious, loud,
empty kind of patriotism, not the "regular" kind.
