Unamerican? IMO what home is by name is irrelevant. America, Canada, Germany, Japan, it doesn't matter. Home to me, is everything you know and love. It's your friends, your family, your property, your neighbors, your community. It's also your ability to come and go as you please and to make your own choices for yourself. It is also, IMO, the only thing in this world worth fighting for. Home isn't always perfect, but in the end it's still home, and you have to make a stand somewhere.

Now on liberal vs conservative state, I think it's obvious I've already made that choice, though not by design. In fact I live in the most conservative county, in the most conservative state. However, personally, I'm not big on religion, I could care less about abortion, gay marriage, and all the other big social hot topics of the day that Left or Right tend to get butt hurt over. To me, it's all small stuff when compared to your enumerated rights, and your ability to live your life how you see fit. Needless to say, I don't sweat the small stuff.
