"[Some Southern Senators] unpatriotically blocked a bill..." -- Rep. Dingell
"It is unacceptable for this un-American, frankly, behavior of these U.S. senators..." -- Gov. Jennifer Granholm [...]
"John Ashcroft is not a patriot."-Howard Dean
"[In the Bush administration, there is] a group of people around the President whose main allegiance is to each other and their ideology rather than to the United States."-Howard Dean
"We hear them in the cries of the false patriots who bully dissenters into silence and submission".-Ted Kennedy
"I don't think it's patriotic to put on a flight suit and prance around on the deck of an aircraft carrier looking for a photo op." - Gen. Wesley Clark
"The policy that the administration is following in Iraq is ... anti-patriotic at the core..." - Sen. Bob Graham
