No, the flag stands for what you do not. Original intentions (courtesy of Wikipedia) The supposed symbolism of the colors red, white and blue is drawn from heraldry and was not originally intended to apply to the flag. Charles Thomson, Secretary of the Continental Congress, discussing the proposed U.S. Seal, gave symbolic meanings for the colors in the seal, drawn from heraldry, with white signifying purity and innocence; red, hardiness and valor; and blue signifying vigilance, perseverance and justice. Over time, that explanation came to be associated with the flag. None of the above are even remotely central to the tenets of indulgent progressivism (don't mistake tipping of the playing field in favor of the parasites for justice . . . it's really self-serving faux justice to bribe the beneficiaries into handing over their political allegiance).
U.S. Forces are relying on the Taliban to provide perimeter security. This reminds me of the Altamont Free Concert where the Rolling Stones hired the Hell's Angels for security...
You stole my thunder. I was assuming JoeNation would reply to my earlier post concerning his display of colorful photos, and was that what he was trying to convey via the word empathy and if so, we could have a great discussion. Then, you come along and put your 2 cents in. Thanks a lot. I would have expected 1 cents from member Yakpoo, but I never expected 2 cents, from you. Ingrate.....
So true! This is only possible through direct taxation. There was a reason the Founding Fathers made it illegal. Direct taxation destroys Public oversight of government.
Biden did his "Moment of Silence" for the cameras yesterday and now the flags are at half staff. The entire Biden Presidency is an exercise in symbolism...not competence. This is a perfect preview of Socialism in America.
Well, if that was actually true, at least you had four years to get used to phony symbolism and incompetence.
If Democrats are as smart as they say they are, there's no way this method of withdrawal from Afghanistan was an accident. At the same time, it's horrifying to imagine this was done on purpose.
