Hi Eustace,

If you will click on my post #143 on the ragged flag there is a good bit of info and John Wayne.

I just bought some flags 3X5 foot, made in America at Sam's for $10.00. I understand what you mean. I also drive American cars.

But, in America, people have a right to to it their way. Probably why its getting harder for people to make a good wage. If this makes sence. Its late and my wife says I got to go to bed. Good nite all, sweet dreams.

And what You said is exactly what "WE" are fighting to keep.

As some of what You mentioned has already been stolen.

TEMPORARILY!!!!!

A comment I just saw on the petition by someone from NJ ......

"If we were able to go back and change history we would have stopped the planes from hitting the WTC in the first place."

She's got a great point!

You are so right and that is why we must keep the "light" burning. To remind everyone what we had and what we are losing. The dreams and reality we had as children are not the same for our children and grandchildren. We must bring it back to the way it was and should be.....UPDATE 78,485 With 1,515 to go....

We "boomers" allowed it to happen. We are fighting a rear guard action now hoping to turn the battle, and battle we must. Ronald Reagan's words haunt me almost daily:

You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children
this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take
the first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let
our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief
moment here. We did all that could be done.   

God bless him.

A comment on the Petition that I just came across is both heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time.

My brother was one of the firefighters killed that day. He tried to save individuals regardless of their race, creed, sex or anything else. He truly was a hero. To take away from other hero firefighters, in particular, the ones who raised our flag, is a slap in the face to those firefighters. The credit should go to where it belongs - have the faces of those who actually did the deed represented, not some politically correct and fictional occurence. This is a farce!

May God bless the families of all those who sacrificed their lives to try to save others!

It's so much more complicated than that.

Rather than changing the past, we need to prevent the future. At least the one that is planned for us, not the one we should have.

Because what I want to say covers so much time, it's hard to put in a few paragraphs, I hope You understand.

I believe Jesus is our Savior. I didn't until I had read enough of our history to show me the greed used to enslave us. When I was able to see the evil that was responsible for the "sacrifice" of millions of men, women, and children hidden in revolutions and wars, I was able to see what Christ faced for us.

Until that point, it didn't make sense. I mean what kind of god would make a being that he knew he would have to destroy, especially a perfect god.

I'm 47 and this was about 5 short years ago.

When I saw the magnitude of the evil, I was convinced God did exist.

I also believe in some way He led me to the things I have read (for different reasons).

Anyway, GREED has been used to corrupt some people enough, that they would enslave us.

I'm convinced that we won't win anything with guns (they have the money, and better toys).

The only way we stand a chance in hell, is to put God back above man. We are suffering from hundreds of years of mans rule.

The simplest way I can see to do that, is to unincorporate our Churches and hold our politicians to Gods' Laws. I believe our Constitution was formed around Gods' Laws so I believe everything is already in place to achieve that goal.

People just have to quit being blind and choosing to remain that way.

I also believe that the Bible can be like the stories of Christmas in "Scrooge", Christmas Future is really up to us.The Bible tells what will happen if we continue this course.

I've left out so many names and dates and happenings that lead me to my beliefs, but would be happy to list them. But maybe You already see what I see.

Peace

So true. I saw the leftist propaganda start in the sixties. While the majority of our boomers were being drafted and sent to Viet Nam and others working hard to support themselves. There were those who went to College on Mommy and Daddy's dime so they could protest, do drugs, and party etc. How they ever had time to get an education is beyond me. There is no way the majority of the people were against the war in Viet Nam. This is so untrue, I lived it. The ones who were against the war was only to protect their own hide and not for their fellow man or some "deep conscience" but boy did the media "spin" it. In my senior year in high school, I had a "new" teacher who taught US Goverment which was a required course for graduation. He was the first "Socialist/Liberal" I had the misfortunate to have to listen to. Needless to say, we had quite a few heated discussions. I demanded to be taken from that class and moved to another or I would not graduate. I was moved to another class with a "real" teacher. As time went on, everything seem tilted. Right was wrong, Wrong was right, up was down, down was up. Then thank God for Reagan and Rush Limbaugh. We the people who have never taken anything from this country but have always gave through blood, sweat, and tears have to be vocal and be heard. We can not allow the few to browbeat, threaten, and bully us anymore. We "boomers" who were the working stiffs, the Veterans, college students who actually went to College to get an education, Mothers who stay home to raise their children, etc must stand tall, be proud and be heard.

I agree.

If we don't tell our side of the story, only one side will be told.
