91. No I can't
Edited on Sat May-29-10 10:45 AM by NoGOPZone
My neighbor, a lifelong American who often complains about overly patriotic attitudes when he isn't complaining about something else, recently decorated his front lawn in the most garish display of flags I've ever seen. I hope it's just for this weekend.

Having said this, I'm not sure the behavior you describe is unique to Americans. Flags and decals from foreign countries around the world can be found on and in the cars and houses around where I live. With the World Cup about to be played, I'm going to see even more. We'll even get the third generation American who doesn't even like soccer flying another countries flag for a month or two
