I wonder why no one has made a big deal about me not wearing the flag pin in either debate?
I made a conscious decision to not wear it – my own kind of BLM protest and no one has even asked me.
It’s really because I think America should get off its high horse and be more globally minded. I’m not a huge believer in having kids say the “Pledge of Allegiance.” I think love of America and thinking we are best is not polically correct. I don’t want leaders from other countries watching me while I’m wearing the pin and thinking it means I am totally for America and everything it has stood for and our constitution as it stands. We should be more flexible and understand the changing times. The constitution was written long ago. We should see if it still fits us.
I applaud giving Iran $1.7 billion in CASH while our inner cities are being destroyed and our education system is tanking. It was the right thing to do.
Obama went on his “Apology Tour” and I think he did the right thing with that as well. I think telling Saudi Arabia the way they treat women is wrong is not the correct thing to do. It’s their country and I like them writing me checks – so who cares if they let women drive or not? Who cares if Iran and the Saudi financially and otherwise support terrorists. People are more likely to be hit by lightening than killed by a terrorist. It’s ridiculous. ISIS not going to do anything too bad in our country – a few people dead here or there. Everyone has to die sometime.
I’m with me. Oh, sure my “public” voice says I’ll work for all people. And, The Donald said I’m a fighter – but what I fight for most is myself. The proof is in the pudding as I always say. Or, government is an ugly business like making sausages – you don’t want to see how it’s done.
More later.
