CHOOSE PATRIOTISM FIRST

Okay, America is a great country --the best in the world-- and we live here day after day...but do we show our patiotism enough?

How many of you fly our Flag each day, and take it back inside each night? have a Flag on your car? can recite the Pledge of Allegiance--right now? know how much our fore-father's and veterans gave of their lives for our freedoms?

I don't bring my flag in at night. I have a spot light on it. It looks real good as you come up the street.

Yep, can recite the Pledge of Allegiance and remember when they added "under God". Was in school at the time. Honestly, though, I don't fly the flag. Too many businesses use it (especially the giant ones) as attention getters which I still call using it for advertising. I do respect the flag and have called down one store for flying a dirty ragged flag. They replaced it the next day. As a Viet Nam era Veteran and having spent 6 years in the National guard just for fun after having served my active and inactive duty time, I think that I have shown my patriotism. For myself, and not demeaning anyone else's view, I think it takes more than a flag flying to be a patriot. It takes the willingness to give "Our Lives, Our Fortunes, Our Sacred Honor."

I think that it is important to be proud of your country. However, you always need to be careful not to go so far as "My country, right or wrong." This mentality has resulted in many war crimes being committed in the past, such as the holocaust. I'm not telling you to turn your back on what your country stands for, but learn about your country.

I am a proud Canadian, and no matter what Pat Buchannan says, we are actually quite a bit like you. I am very proud of Canada's peacekeeping, and I agree with most of Canadians when we chose not to go to Iraq. But I'm also proud that Canada is so close to a country that makes no pretenses and doesn't take bull from anybody.

All in all, I'm just trying to say think before you act.

Thank you for reading this.

Just like with this recent election. President Bush hasn't got anything to be ashamed of, has the right to lead tackling the issues he said he would, and does not have to tip-toe around anyone; I don't have to tip-toe around, either.

You might want to listen to one of your own....who gets it...

Check out this thread, my friend, and God Bless Canadians like HIM!
