I pledge allegiance to the flag
Of the United States of America
And to the Republic for which it stands
One Nation under God, indivisible,
With liberty and justice for all
If I remember back to when I was a kid and learned the “Pledge of Allegiance”…..I’m pretty sure that’s how I learned it. However, it seems that at some time during the last (fill in the blank) years, since I was in grade school, they have officially changed it. The best that I can tell….it has been officially changed to “with liberty and justice for some”. And the “some” seems to be entirely dependant on how and what you believe. For example…If you believe in evil things like…oh I don’t know…let’s say for example something really disgusting….like displaying the flag of the United States…(you know…the flag that represents that country that we live in….and the one that young men and young women are giving their lives daily to defend…yeah THAT one)…if you believe in displaying THAT flag….(yeah the one with the red and white stripes and the 50 stars on a field of blue)…you could be told that you cant display it if someone finds it offensive….and then you could be fined, sued or fired from your job if you don’t take it down……. Huh? ....…Really?....Let me see if I’ve got this right.....You find the flag that is representative of the greatest country that has ever existed…offensive?...Really? Why is that? Because you don’t believe in what it stands for? Because you don’t like the principles on which this country was built? Because you…along with those like President Obama want the country that that flag represents, changed from the way that the founding fathers set it up….into a Marxist nation? As hard as that is to believe……almost daily we are seeing citizen’s rights infringed on because they are displaying the flag of their country….I’m not talking about Iran or North Korea…..…No….it’s here in the United States.
Back a couple years ago thousands of illegal immigrants took to the streets to riot, and protest the fact that they were being “targeted” with laws that would force them to obey the laws of the country, that they were living in…..(Can you imagine a country that would be SO evil, that they would think that criminals protesting in the streets is wrong?) Anyway…during that time….(here in the United States)....those protesters (many of whom were criminals) were displaying the flag of Mexico….carrying it down the streets or flying it in front of their businesses in protest of their “oppression”….The interesting thing was that those who consider themselves “progressives” (insert your choice of words here….Communists, Marxists, America Haters, or Obama supporters…they all work equally as well)….were fine with it. They would comment with statements like “isn’t it beautiful that people can take to the streets to protest in this great country?”…..Or they would say “Well, it’s their right”…..First of all, if you are not a citizen of this country….aren’t your rights just a tad bit limited?.... Secondly, if you are a criminal in this country (like it or not…being here illegally would constitute be a criminal….)….I’m guessing that your rights are also just a tad bit limited. But those like President Obama and Nancy Pelosi look at it as a tremendous exercise of free speech….seriously? With that in mind…… remember that those who showed up at “tea-parties” were just a bunch of crazed right-wing fringe nut-jobs. It’s just shocking that these people were doing these things……(take a deep breath)….Hold on ….THOSE PEOPLE WERE CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY!!!!! As citizens, they have the RIGHT to do that….(yeah it’s that whole ridiculous first amendment nonsense that guarantees “the right of the people peaceably to assemble”)…..and from all accounts, the “tea parties” were done peaceably. However the other group that I mentioned before….first of all…if they are here illegally, they don’t have that right…..and number two…they certainly weren’t very peaceable....No, they did everything that they could do to be disruptive…. If that makes me a hater….a racist….or maybe even a right-wing nut job…..I'm ok with that.
What about the attempt to limit free speech when it comes to Fox News?....Or do those who are here illegally (law breakers) have more rights than Fox News?......Back to the flag….Let me get this right…..in our nation, ALL it takes anymore for you to be told to take down your flag is for someone to say…”I’m offended”…..After much thought…..I would like to propose a VERY simple solution for those who are offended by the flag of the United States of America….It’s official name is the “Go Buy Yourself A Plane Ticket And Leave The United States Act. You're telling me that I'm supposed to be o.k. with the fact that you can burn our flag, spit on it, and complain that you have to look at it?…..Well to put it plainly “I’M NOT OK WITH IT”. This is MY country and I am proud of it. That red, white and blue flag represents my country. If you don’t like the flag that represents this country, then you don’t like my country……so leave. Go to a country where you are NOT offended by their flag or their country. It’s really that simple. In fact I propose that we take some of the money that is being wasted by the idiots in Washington and use it to help you buy a plane ticket so that you can leave more quickly…..So, if you're one of those who is offended by the flag of this country…….Please GO AWAY….Don’t come back. I’m pretty sure that on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty, part of the inscription reads "…Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…”…...This country has always been open to those who come here legally and who will embrace the ideals that this country was founded on. Here’s the simple version…..if you don’t like the way that this country works…..go to Iran….see how that whining about the government works out for you there. If you want socialism…..there are plenty of countries that are governed by a system of socialism…..pick one and leave……If you tend to lean toward Marxism….knock yourself out finding a Marxist government….After you find that country….I think that you should leave this one and go there where you can be happy……Just do me a small favor….stop by Washington on your way out…..and pick up Obama and his Marxist czars, and take them with you…….
So let me see if I have this right...you can fly the Mexican flag in the United States and that's ok, and maybe even applauded. But you can't display the American flag if someone is offended. You can make movies that show this country as an evil nation (note to self...mention Michael Moore in this article), but if you are Fox News...and you report something other than the Obama/Marxist message...you're evil. If you are in this country illegally, you can protest, riot and disrupt other people's lives...and that's ok....But if you gather together to protest against those in Washington who are attempting to destroy the very foundation of this great nation...you're evil. I feel that we as a country have lost our way...and sadly, if we don't get back to the principles that this great country was founded upon....we are in big trouble. …..Then Again….That’s Just Me……..
