Poor woman!
After 9/11, there were so many banners flying, it looked like a documentary about the third reich on the history channel. Reminded me of the "duck and cover" drills in school, where your little wooden desk was supposed to protect you from a nuclear blast. Same with the flag. Terrorist threat? Fly the flag! That'll show them! And it will protect you! It was deemed unpatriotic, not to display the flag on SOMETHING, your house, car, T-shirt, whatever. Was kinda spooky.
The Bush Cabal played us like violins, didn't they?
