Patriot Games!

Flag waving to what end?  Not that anyone should be less loyal to their Nation, or not served when the need arises. To be Patriotic is not a game, at least in the sense that we go to war and demand our sons and daughters to go risk their irreplaceable lives for the Nation’s sake.

Patriotism should not and must not be a one sided affair, whereas a Nation demands sacrifice of its sons and daughters; and is not loyal to them in return for such sacrifice. Our Nation has been embroiled in a deadly and insane war for more than five years, to what end? Our sons and daughters are placed in harms way not so much for the security of our Nation, but for the greed of the oil conglomerates.

8000 parents of U.S. military sons and daughters have lost their children because of the lies from Bush and Cheney.  Cheney knows the people are against the war. " So" is his response.    Whats yours?
