Why is it that some on the right feel as though they have a monoply on patriotism?

Who made this arguement? To say someone is ignorant of protocol isn't saying they're unpatriotic. Unless someone has said it to you then what is your motivation if not to dismiss an arguement?
Being in the mititary doesn't automatically make you more patriotic than another. I've not made that arguement. Perhaps you read into that on your own or maybe that is just a tactic?
I bring up the military because that's where I learned not to bow to foreigners, especially when you're a representative of the U.S. I don't expect everyone to know this because it's not taught. They taught me in grammar school to bring the flag in when it rains too. This seems to be lost on a lot of people these days.
