Putting my flag out today. It covers half the front of my house because it is HUGE.

P.S. Please pray for us today. We must go to the federal bldg. in Seattle this morning. There have been some threats issued anonymously to gas/oil companies such as "it was E. coast on Wed, but W. coast on Thurs." I'm trying not to be anxious and go about normal business.

I work for Morgan Stanley Dean Witter. We had 50 floors in 2 World Trade and more in 5 World Trade.

Here in the Chicago suburbs, our US flag, Illinois flag, and Morgan Stanley flag are all flying at half mast. It's heartbreaking.

William T. Sherman had it right when he said, "WAR IS ALL HELL." He understood that when you are in a war, you fight to win AT ALL COSTS. No one is spared. Because we forgot this principle, we lost Viet Nam and have allowed a bunch of pantywaist pacifist America-hating liberals to dictate our military policy. It's time for blood! I believe nukes are in order. Our national security and lives are at stake now! Let's open up a can of extinction!

Hear hear, brother, I couldn't have put it better! It's not rocket science, just look at the record. Who has consistantly been for cutting our Intellegence and Military? Democrats, Democrats, Democrats!!! I hope all the Democrats are happy about what they've done.

Thank you for the flag (no pun intended today) and your wise words posted on so many threads the past horrendous 24 hours. I'm having a difficult time forgiving the left for their campaign against our President and his policies, even to foreign leaders. This morning a foreign policy pundit on FoxNews told the viewing audience that Bush's going against the world on Kyoto and ABM angered many, that Clinton signed on for the international court, but Bush didn't. His message was clear, and unrefuted by the host, that Bush was wrong not to follow the international agenda set by the left.

How do we unite and still respond to those who will use this opportunity to try and exploit this tragedy? In tears and very grateful for fellow Freepers today..

Would it be so wrong, would it be too much to ask, if some of the Democrats would come out today publicly begin to say "hey look, we've been wrong and we're very, very, sorry"?

This makes my morning thank you. God bless America.

Liberty never bows to tyranny! No bended knee.

Thank you 68-69.

"A thoughful mind, when it sees a Nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the Nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the Government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the Nation which belongs to the Nation that sets it forth."

--Henry Ward Beecher

Nice try. The thing has a horizontal rod to keep it extended, which means it must have been one of those flags that was put on the moon.

I saw this flag amidst the rubble on a TV new broadcast last night. I'm glad someone had the thought to put it there to remind us all that we are STILL a strong nation, and this act of WAR did not change that!

Hey boner! I saw the same flag waving on a live camera broadcast last night on Fox News.
