For Flag Day, "The Flag"
You Tube ^ | June 14, 2013 | Gina Miller

It is the most easily-recognized flag in the world, the flag of the United States of America. It is the symbol of our great nation, a nation that was the envy and the desire of the world, and for so long, the light of nations for freedom and prosperity.

Our nation is under attack from within, at the hands of those who run our federal government and other institutions. Even our flag, for many years now, has been a target of those who hate us.

Some of us have become disheartened and weary of speaking out against the evil forces that have commandeered our federal, state and local leadership. It seems that our voices cannot reach above the screeching din of the hate-filled Left with its Hell’s media megaphones and army of useful idiot, blathering trolls incessantly repeating the party line talking points of ruin against our nation.

But, for now, our flag still flies, and those of us who love this great nation also love its beautiful symbol. Though we may be outraged and brokenhearted at what we see happening to our beloved nation, we will not give up speaking out for what’s right and speaking against what’s wrong.

This is not for the cynical. Here is a brief, heartfelt narration called, "The Flag," by Chicago’s Denny Farrell. Denny is a world-class radio announcer, Big Band Hall of Fame Inductee and winner of the National Ballroom & Entertainment Association’s Award for his outstanding radio show. An American patriot, he hosts two weekly radio shows, "The Original Big Band Showcase" and "Late Night Chicago Radio," both of which are heard on numerous stations across America and streaming on the Internet.

Certainly, it took some courage. Makes me wonder about our own kind.
