    I agree. A friend on here gave me a link to hear some Arab music. I still have to hook up my speakers, but plan on listening to it later today.

    Thank you my dear. I know you don't agree with everything I write, and you show tremendous restraint and patience by not reprimanding me continuously.

    :)

    Flying the flag (IMO) is meaningless if you don't know the story of Francis Scott Key.

    How many people who fly the flag know what he wrote and understand it?

    Patriotism has become ritualism, not spiritualism.

    Not at all, I think you have a brilliant mind. Many things that you bring up, I have never even heard of, and I have to go research. I don't really like debating or arguing that much, but I love to learn about things that I was unaware of.
    :)

    For some, patriotism is just a feeling. The flag is a symbol of our country, they love America, and it is as simple as that. To know the history, is much more meaningful though. Here is a webpage about Francis Scott Key, that has the interesting story behind the flag.

    And that is why I like you. The world could use a few more people who research their curiosity.

    Thanks Guerilla, the feeling is mutual.

    If anyone is interested in reading stories about Jewish Americans, I found this website that also lists events to celebrate in May.:)

    How do you know? Republicans usually don't do anything for free. :D

    And let's not forget their contribution in form of passing the American atomic bomb secrets to soviet union or passing the American military secrets to Israel. :rolleyes:

    I would suggest to Mr. Bush to choose a special day during the special month of May. 11th May would be my advice as this is the day that the control freaks will legally control the herds.

    Another suggestion for Mr. Bush would be to change the country's name. I'm on the fence between USrael or the JewSA.
