Yup! Doesn't McCain look very similar to Steve Martin? confused

and re. the snake whatever piercings........... never mind a woman President or a Black President - how about a president with piercings?

I mean, for the sake of international relations, a 'pierced' President of the US of A could go down well in Papua New Guinea - right?

I agree. It can't get any worse. Vote for someone who is going to look after you as citizens of the USA. The rest of the World can look after itself ... or not. But you all need someone who gives a rats whether you can access good education, health and employment.

Good luck.

Is that what they mean by a new direction?
It's a start!thumbs up

BTW I added 1 vote to the Obama column, but my biggest enjoyment came by voting AGAINST Eric Cantor, he's the congressman who sponsored the flag desecration amendment to the Constitution. Imagine some goddamn politician trying to tell me what I can and can't do with a piece of cloth or paper that I bought and paid for with money I earned, just because it has some pretty stars and stripes on it.

Glad you brought that up!!

I bought a 12 pack of cupcakes on the fourth of uly. Each had an American flag. Under this amendment, it would have been illegal to throw thgem away.

So my question is, when does a flag...become a flag? 2 in? 6in?

12in? It is indeed a piece of cloth and to see it otherwise is idolatry. I served my country. I stand for it's ideals. But I won't be drawn into worshipping a symbol of it's existance.

Expanding on your point, for decades the flag had 48 stars and I'm sure there are 1,000's of 48 star flags around which technically is no longer the "approved" flag, under this ridiculous amendment would it be legal to destroy a 48 star flag?

The irony of all this is that probably 99% of all the american flags sold in this country were probably made in China by child labor or at best deplorable working conditions.

Good point! When participating in various living history events I routinely try to fly a flag from that time period - from 13 stars on up - and though I habitually try to treat them with respect, they sometimes show a bit of wear and tear and, once in a while, end up on the ground or hastily stuffed into a pannier/knapsack. It doesn't make them any less valuable to me or mean that I have any less respect for them, it just means that sometimes "poo happens."


thumbs up
