Baseball and Patriotism


32 years ago he was a hero, would this be the case today. Looking back when you had patriotism and it was not a bad thing.

    That was a nice vid you pulled out of your hat. You ask would he still be considered a hero now?

    No disrespect but it’s a flag a thing an object – yes it should have great meaning behind it – Love for your Country – And each citizen that is a part of it -BUT?

    If the only love a person has for his country is to say ‘I love the flag, It hails on their front porch, antenna of their car etc – then if that’s it – you don’t love it.

    For Example a Married Man/or Woman (I’m not sexist) wears their wedding ring everyday – don’t even take it off to bathe – luv their wedding band – its so Symbolic – in it’s meaning -

    Yet, on a regular are having affairs one nighters and quickies w/somebody(s) else other than their spouses – the ring maybe symbolic but what about your actions???

    This is exactly how Americans today are acting about the Flag.
    Hailing the red white and blue – Salute Salute Salute!

    But, what do they really do for their country or the citizens of it?
    Nothing everybody is having Selfish affairs with themselves.

    (that was a nice video though, have a flawless day)

    It’s sad that as a baseball fan I’d never heard of this, but I have now and I really appreciate your posting it.

    He’s a real hero (even if he is a Cubbie).

Be Proud

“I wish that some in the media would keep things like that in perspective, what is really important in our country. And what is important is our freedoms, America’s security, our liberty. Let us continue to love our country, be proud of our country, never apologize for our country.”
- Sarah Palin

Common Sense

Of course, Obama attended a black supremacist church for twenty years, and referred to his grandmother as “a typical white woman,” and wrote a book with the word “race” in the title – which no politically ambitious white writer could ever get away with. But that’s not “racist” or anything. -Kathy Shaidle
