BULL.FUCKING.SHIT.

they do it at baseball games, too. and before i found out the pentagon was paying for it, i kept asking, where are the firefighter? where are the cops, even? to say nothing of the mom who raised 15 kids in the projects, the mutt that pulled his family out of the burning building.
hell, i would have been happy to see an alderman that did something good for a change.

yeah, we are sick of your war heroes. medals are just cogs in the war machine.

and every time they roll out those big flags, i promise i am not the only one thinking about howard zinn-
there is no flag big enough to cover the stain of an unnecessary war.
