That said, I want to know (1) why a Library is required to be "objective." Doesn't the fact that it is sitting on the soil of a sovereign state of the United States of America make that a moot point?
And (2) Since when is being proud of one's country "making a political statement?" Or are we finally dropping the pretense that one can be of any political persuasion and yet be a red-blooded American as well?
This tends to confirm something I've suspected for a long time. Most of these "statements" by leftists are about Pres. George W. Bush, not about the nation or its flag. If Bill Clinton or Algore were President right now, you can bet these kinds of stories wouldn't be showing up.
I have been so caught up in the traitorist acts of these groups, I failed to see this perspective. On the other hand, I truly believe that our country would not have shown such an overwhelming patriotic response if Clinton were in power. He would have done nothing except continue his photo ops and lies.
