patrotism Patriotism A slightly wounded American soldier in a battlefield hospital in Iraq tells the nurse:"How I wish I could kiss the American flag if I am going to die!" Nurse: Extremely touched by the soldier's patriotism: "Actually, I have the American flag tattooed on my bottom. You may kiss my ass, if you don't mind it." Soldier: "Of course I wouldn't mind it. Thank you for fulfilling my last wish as a patriot American." The nurse took off her panties and the soldier kissed the flag. Soldier: "Thank you, nurse. Would you be so kind as to turn around so that I could kiss Bush too?"
