Some people may think of it as a stupid little flag but to most American's it is a symbol of who we are and what we stand for.Quote:

Ok, settle down guys. We all voted for the candidates we most liked. I happen to support Obama. He's our president. if he doesn't succeed in turning the economy around, we all fail.
With that said, the flag is our most precious national symbol, politicians should wear it as a symbol of loyalty. However, not wearing it at times does not mean you are against the country. We should all simply be proud that we can have this kind of dialogue without the government storming through our doors, sending us to a third world country and accusing us of being unpatriotic.
With that said, the poster at the top is funny, everyone can enjoy the freedom of pleasant or unpleasant political banter. But none of us should expect to change anyone else's minds through thread dialogue on a boating website.
Catmando: you're giving those of us with a "cat" screenname a bad name by jumping into the political discussion so quickly.
Tony, good service. Never understood the mashing of pins into skin thing, but if that energizes our troops into a stronger spirit of loyalty and camradeire, so be it.
Everyone, Obama is our POTUS. We need him to succeed. I am scared of the nationalizing that is going on. For the most part, the banks and insurance companies have been begging for the money. However, we are hearing about the forced money and inability to return it. Time will tell what's coming. For now, people are so despondent, they'll listen to Lenin preach his beliefs. But if we do stray too far from free market capitalism, 2010 and 2012 will be very interesting.
But let's all settle down, enjoy these threads for what they are; entertainment and interaction.
