Until 9/11, I wasn't quite as passionate about flying our flag every day, but that did something to me as it did to countless other Americans. I think that, and having a Commander in Chief that we can respect and who shows how much 'he' loves our country, sincerely and honestly, has probably made a difference in many of our lives.
I think that I might be inclined to stick a small flag in a flower pot outside if I couldn't mount it on the wall! :)
9/11 branded my loyalty even deeper. I've become such a flagnut that I look for them everywhere I go. I haven't said I won't do business with folks who aren't flying flags but the ones who do definitely encourage me to be a "regular". Having President Bush in the White House makes all the difference--how many times have I given thanks that he's the one leading us? Too numerous to count. I don't even want to think where we'd be if a Dem were at the helm.
The flag in a flower pot is a fantastic idea! I'll have to buy one special just for that.
