Why is there no outcry about that? Oh yeah, the republicans are doing it. They should outlaw the wearing of the flag as scarves, thongs, jogging pants, flip flops. Why is there no outcry about that?

(He opposed the War on Drugs for one.) I ended up voting for the Green candidate, Medea Benjamin.

What an ass! I wish she hadn't been so damn safe in her primary. I'm totally against an anti-flag desecration amendment, but I'm willing to compromise: Criminalize flying the Stars n' Bars, and I'll agree to a law criminalizing desecrating the Stars and Stripes. Any takers? Yeah, I heard the little speech that Feinstein gave about it on the radio. What an ass! I wish she hadn’t been so damn safe in her primary.

The real question here is when did standing up for Liberty become unpatrotic? The Patriots of revolution didn't rembell to defend the flag, they didn't even have one at the time. The fought and died for Liberty. Other than Mark Pryor, not a single Southern senator opposed the ammendment. Yet their ancestors were perfectly happy to tear down the Stars and Stripes throughout the South, even wage war against their own country, to protect themselves against what they (wrongly, in my view,) precevied as a threat to their Liberty. No American flags were threatened in France or elsewhere in Europe during the World Wars, yet we went over there to protect Liberty. Congress should be concerned with protecting our Liberty and Freedom of Speech. That's what America is about, not a colorful peice of cloth.
