This country has a major problem when people think it is wrong for a candidate not to wear a flag pin.
It was probably made in china. Like all those little plastic versions of our flag people buy.

Many Conservatives will tell you that they love America, but do they? Conservatives have long been against protecting the environment and in favor of the corporate right to trash the large piece of land we call America. Conservatives also are opponents of social programs to help the American poor and are in favor of Wars that kill Americans.
Well... Check this.

Quote:
I do not love America. Based on the last 8 years it is impossible to love America. My love for America is not unconditional. It is based on how the American government acts. George W. Bush has made it impossible to love America.
Learn to love everyone and everything the same. Soon this river of Truth will overrun. If you had the beginings of a bad life and ever dealt with a drug dealer or manipulator its quick to see the same tactics in Bush's speaking.

Quote:
The American flag is consecrated as a sacred idol for so many people, but why? Is it not just a symbol? Is it not just paint on cloth?

I hope someone will answer of few of these questions!
It's a long watch but this is one of the most influencial people ever. By the end it really strikes a cord. I wish I had projector and a big wall in a public place to play this.
