I appreciate the message of the Gadsden. But it’s use has been used by the left to portray the Tea Party as somehow anti-patriotic. And there are just enough dumb people in this country to believe that.

I don’t see what can be gained from using it, other than it might make you feel a little better to express your anger.

We have complete intellectual ownership of the Stars & Stripes. We need to nurture and appreciate that ownership, not divide it to something else.

A flag is something to gather around. Since both sides of this country use the US flag, the Gadsden flag represents the struggles of our side. It means in no way that the Stars & Bars are something less than they are. They are typically flown together anyway.

The left hasn't stopped us from flying these colors, have they?
