This is a day to honor our flag and the great country it represents......it has its faults (the country) just as we do or our family may....but its still ours. Just as you would stand up for yourself or your family you need to stand up for your flag and your country. If you feel its not what it should be you need to stand up and defend it for what it used to be or tried to be....a defender of the helpless, a beacon to the homeless....I could go on but you get the idea. No person/country is perfect but we try and The United States of America came as closer to the ideal than any other country on this planet ever did despite all the mistakes we made along the way. Just like a family...don't look at all the mistakes....look at the good and be proud. This is your flag....our flag. From the first 13 stripes and circle of stars to the 50 stars of today...it represents our country. Fly the flag proudly today.

Yay America! Not to get political (lol), but one of our mistakes is our current president.

(Sigh).....God has a purpose for everything though we don't always see it at the time. The Bible also says that we are to pray for those in authority over us.

Yeah, you're right.
