Love it. Question should be, why don't you put up the flag.

Good STUFF!

We need to keep that way. I am so fearful of some of the change I see and the potential that our freedom is being undermined.

Everyone have a great day and remember those that are serving and have in the past.

I saw a bumper sticker yesterday that said "Change It Back!" It was in red/wht/blu lettering and had no party affliation on it or anything like that. Just those three words. It was thought provoking.
