Hagihana, re: Long may it wave!! Some of us get the goose bumps when it passes by..

I don't get goose bumps when it passes by. I saw too many people with empty heads, false pride and empty hearts hiding behind it while ten thousand good men a year were dying in Vietnam.

I do get goose bumps when I think about the ideals of freedom, equality, justice, separation of powers, and the rule of law. All of those things underlie the greatness of this Nation. The symbol of this great country should more properly be lady justice standing over the Constitution, its Amendments and the Bill of Rights. Part of the protections she'd be standing above would be the unpopular right to take a piece of cloth and abuse it to make a strong point. Ed
