Doonesbury continues its coverage of CIA training course 563P “Interrogation Protocols”
American nationalism, Lieven argues, has taken two antithetical forms: a benign and optimistic civic nationalism, which is normally dominant and whose champions uphold the American Dream, the universally applicable values found in the Declaration of Independence; and a darker nativist tradition, defeatist and suspicious of the world, whose most vociferous proponents are drawn from the ‘embittered heartland’. The former strain of nationalism is common to everyone in the US: Americans from all sorts of racial and religious backgrounds can celebrate freedom and democracy, the constitutional separation of church and state, the guarantee of equal civil rights for all citizens, and the bountiful prosperity of the American Way of Life. This is the ‘American Creed’, as Lieven calls it, and the US as a whole subscribes to it, yet many Americans, particularly in the South, supplement its standard pieties with a self-pitying, defensive white Christian nationalism, oblivious to the contradictions between these two ways of identifying with the US.Colin Kidd, in The London Review of Books 4 Nov 2004, reviewing America Right or Wrong: An anatomy of American nationalism by Anatol Lieven Posted by SJT at January 22, 2005 01:02 AM

The South is now the template for 21st-century America. Stock-car racing, country and western music, an obsession with 'personal weaponry' and an uninhibited style of Protestant religiosity have been exported from it to the rest of the U.S. Blue-collar whites outside the South have adopted the Confederate flag as a badge of working-class alienation from political correctness.
