"My country, right or wrong," is a thing that no patriot would think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying, "My mother, drunk or sober." G. K. Chesterton

It is indeed like saying that, and anyone who had a drunk for a parent would understand. I think you're missing the meaning of the quote. My country, right or wrong.

Well, always love and respect your Mom (and country) but that doesnt mean you always agree...
