It's perfect.

It sums it all up and leaves you thinking, clicking. It's short, sweet and is right to the point.

"We are patriotic citizens too. Patriotism means 'love of country',
caring about its people, its ecosystem, and others around us. Not
giving blind loyalty and a blank check to George W. Bush. We are
patriotic enough to care about the long term effects instead of just
the short term gain. Therefore it is our patriotic duty to guard our
country and our constitution against people and forces hiding behind
the flag."

Jello Biafra - excerpt from The Big Ka-Boom, Vol. 1
 
KABOOM :)

Have to agree there.


Have to agree to a FIRST POST TOO!!!

Fortunately, I'm not old enough to be a father in law... well.... legally ;)

PHEW! That's a relief.

You two use a lot of the same terminology... and... ummmm... logic? No, reasoning.
