Reply #2: You tap into a serious issue [View All]

I have the same problem. It appears the Republicans are once again trying to co-opt freedom, the flag, the USA, patriotism for themselves.

These people have so successfully confused the issue that I fear if I do wave a flag or put the flag on my car people will think I’m a Republican. When our nation and a emblematic symbol are co-opted by a group of narrow-minded ideological trolls its hard to keep your same perspective.

I would suggest (sad that I have to do this) putting a disclaimer on your patriotism if you know what I mean. In other words, fly the flag on the back of your car loud and proud…right beside a “Bush sucks” bumper sticker or something.
