I agree.

But you be prepared to listen to those short thinkers who come along and say “I fought in a war for that flag” or some variation on the theme.

I always correct those guys by telling them “No, you fought for what that flag represented, not the flag. You would put your life at risk for cloth?” As often as not they don’t get it.

It is NOT disrespectful to fly it upside down under these circumstances!

I’d just say my husband fought in the current war for that flag. That’d shut ‘em up.

We’re out in the sticks anyway. Only see the UPS man and the postal carrier (who is my pal).

I’ve wanted to fly the flag in the distress signal position since Jan.20, 2009.

November can’t get here too soon, and then the 2012 elections. But what will be left by then?

I’m of the stand up and fight mentality with the bunch of leftists we’re dealing with. We’ll fight with the ballot box first. Of course there’s always the risk that over time the lefties will just deem a winner by way of massive voter fraud and counting fraud. He who counts the votes decides the election, and I don’t put anything past these SOBs.

End of Rant

Thanks to all those who went to DC to represent us when our gov’t clearly is no longer there to bend to the will of the People. Thanks for trying. We will be heard in November.
