Why do conservatives say: the USA is our country...?

but not your country if you are a liberal, a socialist, a Green, a Muslim, an atheist, a homosexual, black or Spanish speaking, or (dare I say it) a Keynesian New Englander! Can't any of these groups of people be allowed to claim to say that the United States is there country too?

Update:

This posting is an example of a conservative claiming that others are un-American:

    Are you sure conservatives are saying that? Its just as much yours as it is mine. How come we have to put a label on these groups? Why cant we just be Americans doing whats best for America? Im just kidding, seriously these groups you speak of are pretty much ruining it for me.

    Never heard a conservative say anything like that. I do see a lot of liberals ranting and name calling when they cannot win an argument on its merits tho.

    Your in Australia, so I feel safe in saying, "it's not your country"

    Though federalism is dying in the US, (thanks to statists), the beauty of having state governments is that you can have your own laws without majorly impacting other states and people, to each his own.

    because we hold the individualist ideology and philosophical ideas that this country was built on.

    collectivism is anti-Constitution and anti-American in general, and liberal ideology is in fact collectivist.

    We don't say that. We simply say that the U.S. is our country. The rest of your rant is your own invention.
