“… we criticize the GOP “because we care”.”
My party, right or wrong. [Then the part usually left out:] “if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right.”
That’s attributed to Sen, Carl Shurz (1829–1906, said in the Senate in 1872). He was responding to someone trying to embarrass him with the first part of the quote.
That first part was said by Captain Stephen Decatur, whom President Jefferson sent to deal with the Barbary Pirates. After he successfully did that, he came back in 1816, a bit of a hero. That’s when he said
“Our country! In her intercourse with foreign nations, may she always be in the right; but our country, right or wrong.”
